whenever I type in my IP address, localhost or 127.0.0.1 in I.E I get the controll centre for my ORIGO.
to get Apache up I have to use [10.0.0.12...]
Is there anyway I can stop my ORIGO controll centre from going on the web, and have my Apache go up instead? I've tried everything I can think of but Apache will not go up, it only goes onto my network.
And when I type my IP address into I.E it shows all my Broadband connection settings and allows anyone to view and edit them.
Any help would be great, thanks.
The 10.0.0.12 address is probably the local address your system uses to connect to the modem. You get the Apache docroot because that is your 'real' internal IP.
When you say 'my IP address', do you mean the address your modem uses to connect to your carrier, or the address your NIC is assigned?
If the second, then you are still using an internal address like localhost, probably in the 198. range or one of the other reserved ranges.
If the first, then either you are getting caught in an internal address loop with your modem or something similar.
Have you tried to connect to your running Apache from outside your local network?
and when I say 'my IP' I mean the IP address my ISP gives me (I just do a google search for 'What is my IP' and use whatever it shows)
And when I type in my computers IP address on the laptop it shows the control centre but is that because the laptop is on the same network?
The problem is my default 'server' isn't showing whats in my Apache htdocs dic, instead its showing my modems settings on the web, is there any way I can change these around so my Control Centre is on the network and Apache is on the web?
