[mapserver-users] php code at website, mapserver at home, how to configure Apache?

[E Perik]

Hi Jan,

If you got it working local and you have an "always on" internet
connection it should be visible for the outside using your IP-address.

You now use localhost or 127.0.0.1 to see your map, but if you use your
'own' IP address it should be visible for you and everyone else.

If you are behind a firewall, make sure you use another port.
Thought you used Apache, so check your 'Httpd.conf' --> Port 80 (or
8080)

Best would be if you have a static IP address. If not you could use
http://www.dyndns.org/ to make it static.

Hi all,

i will swap my php code from my PC to my website this weekend.
Problem is that i can not run the mapserver at the website, because it
is a
cheap website and so its not posibble to set it up.

For testing i think about running mapserver and mapscript at my PC at
home.
(I have a "always on" internet connection with 512kbit cablemodem from
ntl.)

So i need to make Apache to serve the Internet.

Any hints?
Has this ever been done?

Jan
