Setting up a free intranet website using Apache

Hi
You can install open source packages like xampp,wamp etc for running website in local intranet.These packages contain  apache webserver, my sql database ,php and others.You don't need to worry much about security  stuffs and simply just install the package and you will have your website.

I give you easy steps to run apache server via xampp in your windows machine(it has linux version as well)

1.First go to http://www.findingresult.com?pid=9PO312GO9&dn=sawmac.com&rpid=9POQL9235 and download xampp

2.Install it.
3.In your program files go to:  xampphtdocs ,and place your webpages.lets say your homepage is "jacob.html"
Now you can browse it via web browser with URL "http://localhost/jacob.html"
If your ip address in your LAN is 192.168.1.10 , then you can also browse it with URL "http://192.168.1.10/jacob.html"

4. You can create sub folders in htdocs folders and they will be accessed with URL "http://localhost/SUBFOLDER_NAME/WEBPAGE.html"

For integrating database in your website, you have to learn about databases.
