Hello failmorad,

Try adding a DNS entry- Host (A) file (frankswebserrver - IP address) to the zone where the mx458 resides.

<div>
but would the other computers be able to access it using frankswebserver, or do they have to configure their hostfile as well. &nbsp;I know that I can do this by having all the machines that connect to my computer configure their host file. &nbsp;But i will give it a shot

It will only work on mine, if i change the host name, only I can use <a href="http://frankswebserver" rel="ugc">http://frankswebserver</a>.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I am running Apache, and my computer name is mx458, so other computers on our network can access my webserver by typing in on their browser <a href="http://mx458" rel="ugc">http://mx458</a>, is there a way I change the name so they can access it by typing in <a href="http://frankswebserver" rel="ugc">http://frankswebserver</a>. &nbsp;Is there a way I can do this without changing my computer name?
