Access from LAN/DDNS use (1 reply)

Hello. I have just start ed using WampServer. Downloaded the latest version: 3.2.2.2 64-bit running on Windows 10.

I intend to use WampServer ONLY locally on my PC, but wish to set it up for access from outside the LAN.

To do that, I believe I need to do the following:

1. Use DDNS (I use privatedns.org) and create an entry for my WAN IP
2. Update my router to add a port forwarding rule so that incoming traffic to port XXX is redirected to a specific local IP (in my case 192.168.0.XX)
3. Create a Virtual Server in WampServer
- the current httpd-vhosts.conf now has an entry like this:
<VirtualHost *:7001>
ServerName myapp
DocumentRoot "c:/wamp/www/test"
<Directory "c:/wamp/www/test/">
Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Require local
Require 192.168.0
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

FYI, I changed the default port from 80 to 7001
4. Verify that hosts file has an entry for "myapp"

I notice that "Require 192.168.0" causes an error - "Unknown authz provider"

I would appreciate any guidance on fixing this issue. Many thanks.
