Apache... again

I've got a problem and I'm not sure what it is.
I've installed Apache and I can view it from my machine (URL or URL) but nobody else can, not even people on the same network as me.

I've tried restarting apache.
I've tried turning off my firewall and anti-virus programs, that didn't work so I tried turning them off then restarting apache.
I still have the default httpd.conf file if that indicates anything...

I have no idea what else I can try. Its probably just a silly error somewhere as some months ago I did have apache installed and it worked brilliantly but since I've installed it again it doesn't seem to want to work...

What could be the problem.
Note I did simply install apache straight from the binary, I didn't edit httpd.conf in anyway -> possible cause for the problem..

Thanks

Are you running behind a firewall or router?

Both would interfere.. let me look at my apache config real quick, I had a similar problem when I started.. also, have you tried having people on your internal lan go to http://computername/ ?

Also, look in the error_log when you start apache (apachectl start)

have a seperate login going on so you can
Code:
tail -f /pathtoapache/logs/error_log

Ok.. check a few sections of your config file, and post them here, if you wish, or email me with them if you dont want the public to see them.. I've edited mine..

Code:
<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
</Directory>
Thats what I have for my / directory.. (also, this is assuming that you have linux installed with apache, for windows, not real sure what it would need to be as I havent had much experience with apache and windows)
Code:
<Directory "/www/mysite">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
#
# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"
#
    AllowOverride FileInfo ALL

#
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
#
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

That allows access to the root directory for where the http files are stored..

Also, check the port and make sure that the port isnt in use, if you have another http server running that could cause the problem..

Mainly what I need you to do, is to check the error_log and let me know if you're getting an error message on startup, also, what error message are you geting when people try to access the site?

Thanks
