Thanks, but that does not seem to be it.
There is no firewall on the Apache server, and the router forwards port 80
correctly.
Apache is set to listen on port 80 with the line "listen 80" in httpd.conf.
Everything runs ok from a modem connection or when accessed from
anywhere outside my local network. Thus *you* should be able to see
php setup at http://exxelan.com/phpinfo.php, but *I* am not...
The browser attempts to open the correct ip-number, but after a while reports
"Cannot find server or DNS Error".
