    how to access php application in a LAN?

    i have created a log in system. the users are connected in a LAN with server....
    to access the home page of the log in system, the users has to type url as the ip address of the server i.e,

    xxx.xx.xx.x/login.home.php. ..

    is there any way to access the home page without typing the ip address... just type home in url and enter it will go to the login home page. is it possible? how to do it?

    wamp 2.0 Apache server. php version 5.3 i am using.

    Sure, with a link.
    The user only has to click on a link and not type anything.

        In a LAN, 1st you need to let all users on the network be able to see you. 2nd you need to have that computer setup as a webserver. 3rd you can either use your computers IP or the Network name for your computer.

        Mine for example is hoa. And anyone on my network can access me by the following URL: http://hoa/.
        Also, some networks will probably require port forwarding to certain IPs, and/or registering your IP with the router/gateway, whatever.

        That sort of configuration is out of scope for this forum.
