Hi everyone, i have a windows xp sp2 pc and i have installed the virtualbox from which i get another xp sp2, i refer to first (real-xp) as xp and the latter (virtual-xp) as vm-xp. What i'm trying to do is get a web server in the vm-xp. I have a DSL line, a netgear router and an no-ip account ( +the updater). I configured the router so to give static local ips to xp( -> 192.168.0.3) and to vm-xp( -> 192.168.0.5). I brideged the interfaces ofxp and vm-xp, so the vm-xp gets 192.168.0.5. I run the no-ip updater and have a dns like help.no-ip.org . Now i use the easyphp program to run the server in the virtualbox. I edit the conf file and set the apache to listen to any ip on the internet( 0.0.0.0:80 ) and i set my no-ip account instead of localhost. I have disabled the windows firewall in vm-xp and i have port forwarded the HTTP port 80 to the vm-xp. The result is that i have access from my virtual LAN on the server, but the problem is that outside ( e.g: from a friend's pc ) can't reach the server. Any ideas/help/suggestion will appreciated.
