airbornflght

ok, ive read and re-read the apache manual, and som faqs and walkthroughs. and i have no-ip's DUC set up and connected.

i have no ip set up to rediect www.enidpb.redirectme.net to 68.229.210.190 on port 8080.

I have apache set up to listen on port 8080.

but where do you tell apache where the index file is. and how do you get it started? I cant figure it out.

i really need some help. im trying to get this figured out so that i can set up a server at my friends house after i get mine running.

here is the website that i went to second to try and figure it out link

its a tad bit shadowy. ive never used apache before, is there no gui aside from the system tray monitor. it says no services installed. is this pertaing to mysql and php?

i set the domain as redirectme.net and the name as www.enidpb.redirectme.net is this right?

I've never used Apache, but in the meanwhile you could try Abyss.

Read the guide you linked and I believe what you want is #5.

Making Apache point to your files
Using Notepad open E:\Apache2\conf\httpd.conf (in the start-menu there should also be a "Edit the Apache HTTP Server httpd.conf Configuration File" shortcut) and search for DocumentRoot. Change it from something like DocumentRoot "E:/Apache2" to the location where your HTML files and site are located. In my case: DocumentRoot "E:/public_html"
