Share WAMP/WampServer localhost Files on same Network

To share your localhost and allow files to be available from other computers, do the following:

Open httpd.conf by selecting the WampServer tray icon. Select "PHP" and "php.ini" Change the lines "Deny from all" and the next line "Allow from 127.0.0.1" to just "Allow from all" and restart Apache.

To restart Apache: WampServer tray icon and "Restart All Services".

Now all computers on the network can access your pages served by your WampServer my going to http://<your_ip_address>/

To find your local network ip address, run ipconfig on the command line.

ipconfig
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/">
