Hi Guys,
I just tried iWeb and created my own little website but i cant reach it with my ip now. Websharing is enabled but when i click the IP links there i always reach the apache and the personal website testpage. What am i doing wrong? I placed the Site in the Sites folder and the index html is in no subfolder. Maybe the question is really stupid but i just dont get it right.

THX

Well, what URL are you using?  There are a few possibilities on your local system.

http://localhost/ <-- This must be where you are/what you're getting.
http://localhost/~user <-- Put your username here.  Since it's in YOUR Sites folder, this is where it'll be.

http://127.0.0.1/[~user] <-- Loopback

http://192.168.1.55/[~user] <-- LAN IP. This is mine, use yours.

My guess is you forgot ~user.
