Uses an alias or redirect - how to?

[pkirill]

I apologize up front if this is a silly question...

I have set up a small web server at home (using foxserve) and it works fine. Now I'm trying to set one up as an intranet at work - and though it is running, I can only access it using

http://localhost:8080/.

I've also been able to access it by changing the server settings in the httpd.conf so that

http://<servername>:8080

&

http://<serverIP>

both work. But I can't get rid of the 8080. Ideally, I'd like to access it using something like

http://Intranet.

Is this even possible? If so, could someone point me in the right direction? I'm running WindowsNT 4.0 SP6 as an OS at the moment, if that makes a difference.

Thanks! Any help is always appreciated!

Look in your httpd.conf and change 'port 8080' to 'port 80'. Change the 'servername' directive to you machines lan name and restart the server, or better yet, reboot.

I tried port 80 first - but it returns an error that there are &quot;no listening devices avaialble&quot;. We host our own web site via IIS, but that's on a different server, so I'm lost as to what the issue could be...

See if you have a host file that has an entry for that computer. Search for host*.
