WampServer

I can't get them to work with WAMP 1.6.6. After setting proper http.conf and resolving permission problems, I get a regular "404 not found" when accessing /server-status or /server-info.

Correct. In this case WAMP running on a PC is using files on a unix file system made accessible via samba.

The solution is to use UNC names. Do NOT use mapped drive letters e.g. Z:/foo/goo This works: Alias /track/ "//samba_svr/bob/track/www/" <Directory "//samba_svr/bob/track/www"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride all Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 </Directory>

I successfully installed wamp5 1.6.6 and got .php pages up and running under c:\wamp\www\mydir\* e.g. works fine.

( I assume symlink==shortcut in Wamp land.) But I can't get to the linked directory. Browser shows 404
