I'm current using Xammp,and have created a website in the htdocs. I want to know if i can access this from another computer (not in the same network) and work on the site from that other computer.
You can do this by using the dynamic dns service provided by noip.com. Download the noip client and setup an account in it (try Googling on it).
After that you must edit the conf files in XAMPP to allow outside network to communicate with your network.

I have a WI-FI & LAN network at office. I have all my files on my desktop computer (192.168.1.2) and want to access local host over there from another computer (192.168.1.8).
My xampp version is v3.2.2 and windows 7 64 bit.
On my desktop I can access localhost through the normal http://localhost. Apache is running on port 80 as usual.
Exactly what do I have to do to achieve this? There is documentation on the net but they either don't work me or are too old and confusing to understand.
Any ideas as to what changes to make it possible? Please give me step by step instructions.
User should have access of your localhost, you can check this by sharing the folder and check on other machine that folder is accessible or not, If it is accessible then that user easily can access your local host by using the http:/IPAddress, If not contact to IT department they will help to achieve this by removing some restriction on network.
I have set up a new NAS using Open Media Vault. I have installed the WebMin extension to get on to the web gui for configuration. My problem is that I have to be on the same network as my NAS. How can I connect to my NAS from a different network than it is connected to? On the network that it is connected to its IP is 192.168.0.99:1000 for the WebMin gui. How can I access this from a different network?
Setup a VPN to connect to the network that your NAS is on. Once the VPN is connected you can connect to the NAS as if you were on the local network.
You could also possibly setup firewall and/or port forwarding rules depending on how your network is setup but please consider the security issues when doing so.
You could alternatively also try to open the NAS and give it a public IP address and a DNS. This will allow you to setup SSH and FTP as it was any other server.
To SSH remotely over the internet, you need either a permanent IP address or a domain name that is updated to point to the IP address when it changes. The latter requires a dynamic domain name service. A good free one is DuckDNS (duckdns.org). First, use one of the sign-in options such as Google. In the domain line enter your preferred subdomain name.
There is a great guide on how you can do this here: https://forums.freenas.org/index.php?threads/how-to-how-to-access-your-freenas-server-remotely-and-securely.27376/
I have installed xampp server on my windows 7.
I am connecting internet using HUAWEI Dongle.
I don't have any static IP address.i Want to access my php file from internet example I have connected to internet now I have dynamic IP address like 100.101.73.240 if some one enter 100.101.73.240/home.php in his browser address bar then my home.php page should open in his browser.
What should I do for this give me step by step guide.
Local Ip can't work over the internet. It's your intranet network. If you have dynamic internet IP, then you simply configure the Dynamic DNS service. Which you can configure your Internet Router with the following settings (provided by the Dynamic DNS service providers).
dyn.com
noip.com
dynu.com
many more.
Thanks
If you want to share IP with someone from your local area network:
Go to cmd, run ipconfig command, and find your local IP, which should be like 192.168.xxx.yyy. You can easily share it with no worries it will change each time you reset your network.
If it's someone from external network:
You have no power to share your external IP if you have dynamic one, it will change too often, but still it should work for a short connection sessions. To obtain a stable address you would have to register a domain
Testing out Ghostlab on mobile presented an issue when the locally hosted page attempts to ping another locally hosted page via AJAX. Normally, GhostLab will rewrite the URL for you, but since it's an AJAX request I'm assuming it's not rewriting it because it's a dynamically generated URL.
Works fine on virtual machines and host machine with modified HOST file. Fails to load AJAX. The proxy server settings are very limited on GhostLab. Has anyone come across this issue and solved it?
The solution is to run another proxy server because you can't really modify the HOST file on iPhones or Androids without a huge headache.
I ended up using Charles Proxy. I remapped the locally hosted URL to which it was making the AJAX call to my local machine and it fixed everything. Here are the instructions:
1) Open Charles
2) (Menu)Tools/Map Remote...
Add the url you are local hosting to remap any traffic going through Charles Proxy to go to your machine See image example:
Do the same to any other subdomains or domains that are locally hosted on your machine and remap them too.
3) On your mobile device, open settings and select your local Wifi Network.
4) Change the proxy to your machine's IP address and relevant PORT.
5) Attempt to access the website and Grant permission via Charles.
This should fix it all.
I've got multi tenancy set up on my Windows 7 machine using Orchard 7.1 and IIS 6.1 which I can access locally no problem.
They relevant sites are all added within the bindings of the applicationhost.config file, as well as the computers' host file and therefore show up as they should by accessing the url.
I have previously had a single tenant set up on my machine that meant I could access on my network, which was done by adding the site to IIS then binding to localhost/my ip address etc.
However the issue I am having is how to access these sites via a mobile device/another computer (on the same network) now that I have set it up for multiple tenants.
Any help appreciated

You'd need some sort of naming service inside your network, something like Bonjour.
Short of that, I guess you'd have to configure those other machines one by one so their hosts files point to the server.
One final possible possibility may be to simply use DNS. There is no reason why you couldn't use a domain that you control to map several names to local addresses such as that of your server.
