Access WAMP Server from another machine by hostname (8 replies)

I am trying to figure out if this is even possible...

Here is what I have: 2 machines with host name computer1 and computer2 connected on an home wifi network I do not have access to the wifi router configuration, I assume it has some sort of DHCP which assign the ip address dynamically.

On computer1 I have installed Wamp 3 and I have a test static website (and a worpress website) with related virtual hosts.

On computer1 I can easily view the websites in this way:

1) ht_tp://localhost or ht_tp://computer1 or ht_tp://192.168.1.2 --Wamp home page
2) ht_tp://localhost/staticWebsite or ht_tp://computer1/staticWebsite or ht_tp://192.168.1.2/staticWebsite or even ht_tp://staticWebsite --Static website
3) ht_tp://localhost/wpWebsite or ht_tp://computer1/wpWebsite or ht_tp://192.168.1.2/wpWebsite or even ht_tp://wpWebsite --Wordpress website

From the other machine I can correctly view them in this way:

1) ht_tp://192.168.1.2 --Wamp home page
2) ht_tp://192.168.1.2/staticWebsite --Static website
3) ht_tp://192.168.1.2/wpWebsite --Wordpress website

As the ip addess are dynamic I would love to be able, from computer2 to use the hostname, for example: ht_tp://computer1/staticWebsite... Modifing the hosts file wont help as they are dynamic...

I assume computer2 somehow resolve computer1 name because if I do \\computer1\ I can browse shared drives and folders...

Is it possible to access Wamp (Apache) server from another machine using host name?

Thanks, Simone
