    It's most likely how your httpd.conf is setup, assuming you are using Linux & Apache. Are you using any specific control panel, or how is your server setup otherwise?

    Yeah something's not quite right there. I'm running a testing server from my desktop pc and if I type in that pc's local ip (192.....) I get the server home page.

    Are you sure your getting the right IP address? If you have more than one computer on a network for example, your computer might not have the same IP address it did last time you turned it on.
