I have installed Apache on one of my machines on my LAN and would like to
make it available to the others as well. Currenty, to access it from my main
machine (Win 2000) I go to: http://127.0.0.1:8080.

Can anybody advise me how to set up my other machines (Win 98) to make the
Apache Server accessible from there as well?

My network is connected via a router. The IP addresses for the Win 98
machines are being automatically assigned.

Thanks for the help!

I run Apache on this WinXP machine, and my wife and I use it
from all the machines in the house. We use fixed addresses on
the LAN, and put things like

192.168.0.1 mywww

into the hosts file so we can just browse to "mywww" and we
get our house web site.

Apache must be set up to answer to 192.168.0.1:80.
