Hiya,
I can currently access my website through http://127.0.0.1:8000/, but I can not access it through http://192.168.0.2 (my computer's internal address, ot http://192.168.0.2:8000/, also is it easy or possible to setup it to work as http://localhost/ or do I have to install apache as well. I can not access it out of my network, but I persume that is because I can not load http://192.168.0.2/, because I have setup port forwarding and dns, and the IP is constantly updated so it's trying to access it right. Also should someone else not in the network be able to access http://82.43.73.85/ or perhaps can you?

Thanks a lot

Graham

OK, I got your page up, but a DNS name would look better and will aid you in keeping your IP address up to date should it change.

I would suggest www.dyndns.org as it is a better service than the no-ip.com which I have tried and it failed miserably as it only detected my proxy address and not my true IP address. In alot of cases it wont make a difference as to waht service you use, if you have problems with connects, then stick with the dyndns service.
