Hi guys I am new to using apache server.
right now Apache server works with my “internal IP address” but I want it to use my “external IP address” to make my webpage publicly available.
How should I change the “httpd.conf” file to make this happen?
now I have
Listen 80
but when I change it to: “Listen external ip:80” I just get error message “the requested operation has failed”
could you please help me
Thanks in advance for your help
Listen 80will cause Apache to listen on all interfaces on the machine it is running on, so it is already listening on your external (to your machine) interface as well as your loopback (internal) interface.If you want to make it available on the other side of a NAT set up, then you need to configure port forwarding on your router.
