Problems setting up Apache on SuSE 9.1

wait!
this is stupid but worth a try:
try things with just an empty (but existant!) include.conf file (i.e. 'touch' it)

no problem
try www.dyndns.org by the way

OK I've gone to that site, set up an account etc, but when I try to set up the DNS host, it gives the following IP 127.44.8.108, I checked the IP in a browser and it dosn't send me to my index file.

So how do I find out what IP to put into the IP box so I can direct the domain name to my index file?

<edit>I've found that I can access my site with the IP 192.168.1.19 on my local network, but not on the greater internet, i belive I need somehting before that IP address so that people can access my site; </edit>

Thanks;

If you have a dynamic ip address try dyndns.com and they will give you a domain like <you>.homelinux.com. All you have to do is update your ip every time it changes.

i already gave him that link.

dylunio, there's a tool on the site which allows you to setup a daemon which tells the DNS servers what your new ip address is every time it changes

Thanks, now its up and running (hopefully) try http://dylunio.homelinux.com

Thanks;

Code:

An error occurred while loading http&#58;//dylunio.homelinux.com&#58;
Timeout on server
Connection was to dylunio.homelinux.com at port 80

I have it open in the other Konqueror tab, so i'll keep pressing F5
