hello!!

i know this isn't specifically powermac but i noticed a thread on virtual pc
and wondered if anyone can help.

i have vpc3 installed on a 400mhz g4. it has apache web server and php
installed and i use it as a poor man's development tool. all my pages get
coded in  dreamweaver and bbedit, i then chuck them into vpc for testing.
although it's slow it means i can test them on a pc.

the only problem is i want to check them on the mac to. obviously when i
preview, there is no php support and ie just opens the php as a text file.

when i looked through the manual ect i found that you can set up specific ip
address or share the mac's one. after a bit of playing, it all went bad
(suprise!) and reverted to the original set up with apache using the default
local host ip - 127.0.0.1 - everything was back to normal.

does anyone know if you can set this up? i wrote to tech support and they
basically wrote back and said they wouldn't advise using vpc as a web server
but it was possible. unfortunately they didn't disclose how to do it!!

any ideas????

cheers,

jake
