Alright. Today, I set out to host a simple site on my computer. I had no idea it'd be such a monsterous task. After 15 hours I give up, I need help. I'm sure many others out there are thinking the same.
So let's make it easy, not in complicated speech, just simple words, how do you do it?
I downloaded Apache, installed it, told my computer to allow port 80, and then attempted to do Port Forwarding on my Westell 6100 modem/router. Where did I go wrong? The port forwarding asked for global ports and base ports and so many things. I even told my computer to make a static IP.
Someone please, tell us step by step how to do it:
How do you make your computer and router able to let people connect to your computer and see your site on your server?
