I have been trying to figure it out for a couple of days and I am ready to give up.
Two WinXP computers on a LAN. They sit behind a wireless router. 192.168.0.101 runs Apache/2.0.55 (Win32) PHP/5.1.2 Server at Port 80.
Typing "http://192.168.0.101/index.php" in the browser of that same box brings up the main page of a website that I developed.192.168.0.103 is the other machine. When I do "ping 192.168.0.101" from it, all is peachy. But when I type "http://192.168.0.101/index.php" into its browser, I get "The page cannot be displayed" crap.
Apache config has the following persmission for the doc root directory:
Options All MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from allI do not care about accessing my website by either domain name or from WAN. I just want to get to it from LAN by IP. And I can't.
Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Try turning off any firewalls (on both machines). If that solves it you can then try to configure the firewalls accordingly.

Yes, I have been looking at those, but I do not see anything that I would call "corresponding" - there are no entries that seem to originate from 192.168.0.103. It is as though the http calls do not reach the web server at all, which is quite stupefying, since all other network services between the two computers are working properly... Thanks for your time, but I have already given up (I only wanted to have it in order to preview my website at a different resolution, without having to switch resolutions on my primary machine, and I definitely spent way too much time on it cost/benefit-wise)
