u got it right ..http://yourIP should work....if you are using a router or firewall make sure they use the ISP ip and not the local ip and you have port 80 forwarded to your local IP...
hope this helps...if you do have a router check their homepage on how to forward ports |

Well even if you don't have indexing, your directory list of files will show. And if you do have a router (usually used so you can have the internet on two or more computers or to set up a network) you might need to foward the ports. If not, going to your ip should work. I have a Linksys router and it only worked inside network lan/on localhost untill I did so.
And if you disabled your firewall there should be no problem at all. So hmm... _________________ New image comming soon...

whats the first 2 digits of the ip your trying?
does http://127.0.0.1 work?
the abyss control panel sets what file to display to someone connecting to your server
if you go to
Control Panel > Server Configuration > Advanced > Server Parameters |
