I'm brand new to networking and servers. I'm using apache. After a great deal of aggravation I final have my "server" working on my physical computer. I can put things in the htdocs folder and view them in firefox. I tried to access these files on another pc on my network and it can't find the server. I'm using a WRT54G router, would this cause a problem? I haven't edited or changed anything from what it did at setup, because I don't know what any of it does. Any help would be appreciated

How exactly are you trying to pull up your website. Using the IP address?

If you are using a domain name, have you forward the appropriate ports on your router?

We need more info.

I think so, I opened port 80. I can't give much more info cause I don't know. I have tried using localhost and my local ip address.
