I have done a small web development project using eclipse. It runs good when i try running it on browser with url localhost:8080/myproject/home.html . But if i want to access it on other machine(laptop, mobile,etc.. using same wifi..) it is not possible, throws error unable to connect. After googling for a while found out that i have to use the ip address instead of 'localhost'. So i tried 10.0.0.4:8080/myproject/home.html, but still does not work. Infact i am unable to open that url on the same machine (where localhost:8080/myproject/home.html works fine). I also added a new Inbound rule in control panel firewall settings, allowing access to all ports for protocol TCP. Still have problem in running application with the url 10.0.0.4:8080/myproject/home.html (both on same machine as well as laptop and mobile).Anyone plz help me out..FYI i am using Eclipse Indigo, Apache tomcat 6.0Regards,Robert
