Long Distance Networking?

Ive tried ServU. In fact i think i tried them all but had a little more features than i wanted. It was a big learning curve for me but when i figured it out i was good to go. I settled with WinFTP. I think RealVNC comes in handy and another adventure. it allows you to take over another computer remotely besides having access and using it as simple as you would use your own computer. drag and drop.

Look at this site though. It helped when i was trying to figure it besides getting the support here. i think you will both.

Both of those are pay-to-use though, I need a free solution

I have Apache working with Vista

How did you do it? The tutorial im following uses Apache. I downloaded it, but there is no install file anywhere! Well, there is but it asks me what I want to use to open it??

Liteserv is a little pricey...is there a free solution out there?

I know it costs money, I wouldn't recommend purchasing it. I was telling you it was a good program to test out FTP to see if it's what you need, because it's extremely easy to set up.

Apparently Apache does not work with Vista, but Xampp does which is just another version of apache?

How do I port forward 80 an 443? I went into my router and tried to do it but it wont save them>

Did you set your IP to a static address, and port forward to that address?

Is it an ISO file? Most Linux downloads are.

Apache is not a distro, it is an application.

To be more specific, its a web server.
