Hey guys, I'm new to networking, but I think I've got this Apache setup figured out pretty well, except there's this one thing. None of the clients on the network can access the server form the internet. Like, using the actual domain name, you know? Just the "can't find server" message. They can reach it using or by direct IP, but not this way. This is strange, right? What am I doing wrong?

It's not that strange, actually. What kind of router are you using? In most cases, the reason for this kind of behavior is NAT, which doesn't support IP loopback to the network. You *might* be able to work around this issue by editing lmhost, but it's not likely… If you're stuck with a NAT router, you're stuck with this situation.
