Where am I?

I have the Apache 2.0.50 web server running and I know
the IP address of my PC.

But when I use my browser to find:

http://12.34.56.789/MyFolder/MyFile.htm

I get the "not found" error. I do have a "MyFolder"
folder under the Apache2 folder (which contains
MyFile.htm). Doesn't http://12.34.56.789 resolve to the
Apache2 folder? Apparently not. How can I determine how
this IP address relates to the folders on my PC?

Thanks,

Dale F.
 
Try Apache support?

What is the default file name requirement for an apache server??
Have you set that as the default in the server administrator??
I believe it's index.html
If properly set, just clicking the IP address http://12.34.56.789 should open the default file.

I might be overlooking something (I'm only an Apache newbie), but has
everyone else forgotten to ask whether the file is in the htdocs directory
instead of the main Apache Group\Apache2 dir?
