Can we start from the beginning?
I admit it, I have no clue how to set up my pc to be a web server. I'm running both Windows 2000 and XP Home, on 2 different pc's. How do
I set either one of them up to be a web server, then, what do I need to do from there. I would prefer to set it up on the XP pc.
Please type slowly

The easiest way to set up a web server on any windows platform is to use SimpleServer:WWW by AnlogX, available at this link: http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/sswww.htm
All you do is install and run the program, browse to the folder that contains your start page (index.htm or similar) and there you go!
Of course there are no other options. If you want user permissions or file security or other advanced features, you would want to use IIS which comes
with XP Professional (not sure about XP Home). Using IIS successfully is beyond what I can offer here.
Just in case you're thinking that you need a web server to use eJukebox2web, you don't. It has a 'built-in' web server when you
activate that option. You simply use the default port '80' and point your browser to the ip address or name of the machine it's on.
(ex: http://192.168.2.1, or http://anyuser.dyndns.org).
If you are using a software or hardware based firewall (or both), you'll have to configure them to allow outside traffic on port 80 to enter your
network. Again, due to the variety of personal firewall products, there's no way I can cover the specifics here.
Good Luck!
