    Idea that I'm not sure can be pulled off (long)

    Heya :)

    Ok... I've been thinking of a way to go about doing this, and I think I
    might have came up with it. Just wanting to run this by you guys, see what
    you think.

    Here's my setup:

    I have two computers behind a router. One linux, one winxp. The linux one
    hosts apache on a non-standard port, as well as a non-standard MySQL port.
    My ISP blocks the first 1024 ports outgoing, so I've had to adjust them
    accordingly.

    Here's what I'm trying to do:

    My windows computer is much faster/better monitor etc. so I want to be able
    to run a PHP script that will interface across the LAN to my linux machine
    to add database entries, change content etc.

    Here's what I'm thinking might do it?:

    Create a virtual host in apache to point to port 80 on my windows computer
    (again, 80 is blocked, so the outside world wouldn't be able to access it)
    and set up php/apache on my windows comp as well.

    Would this be feasable? and would I just link it to my LAN IP for the linux
    machine with the specified port? (i.e. 192.168.1.102:8 008)

    Thanks for any help, sorry for the longitivity of this.

    Cheers!
    -beef

      yes its possible, but I fail to see why you want to do this, I can make a
      redhat linux box w/ 128mb ram and a celleron 500 out perfrom a winxp box
      anyday.

      beside who cares if it has a monitor, most (99%) of real servers dont have
      monitors, in fact, some of mine don't have video cards.

      use SSH to connect to is, such as SecureCRT

          I have a 23'' monitor, 1.5GB of ram and a 2.66GHz processor in my windows
          comp as compared to 500mhz w/256mb ram and a really really bad monitor on my
          nix comp. the windows comp runs approx. twice as fast I'd say.

          I considered that, but I still think it would ultimately be better (in my
          situation at any rate) to just have the admin panel running on win comp.[color=blue]

              appreciate the fast response btw.... on restrospect, I think I sounded a
              little edgy with my reply.

              I do appreciate the advice and agree with you for the most part... but I'm
              really stubburn on running the control panel on this comp lol

              Thanks :)

                      My problem here is; Why?

                      Can't you just access mySQL over your LAN with any odd client
                      you like for administering your DB?

                      And for Content-management, Anything from mapping up your Un*x box
                      drives with Samba, to using FTP should be a piece of cake?

                      Maybe if you try to describe your situation a little bit better,
                      I'll understand why you try to go the long route...


                      ....or, you could get an X client for windows...
