Not to oversimplify things, but if Apache is installed on the laptop,
I'm guessing you're not going to want this accessable from the
outside world - ie you wouldn't want ME to be able to access it from
my house, right?
So what's in this folder? A Index.html file?
You don't need Apache (or any web server) for that. Open up any web
browser, type C:\directory\index.html, and viola .....

I am unable to configure Apache to connect to my local site.
Apache is installed as a personal web server on a notebook computer
that uses the Windows Vista operating system.
The Apache installation works, as evidenced by the "It works" index
page shown upon using the "<http://localhost>http://localhost"; URL.
I have configured the configuration file, httpd, trying to serve up
an index of my web sites stored in the My Website folder, which is
in the "c:\users\user" folder.
Here are the configuration statements I believe are relevant:
ServerRoot "C:/Apache Software Foundation/Apache.2"
Listen 80
User daemon
Group daemon
ServerName localhost:80
DocumentRoot "C:/users/user/my website/"
<Directory "C:/users/user/my website/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Use of the localhost URL continues to show only the "It works" index page.
I've tried every adjustment of configuration of which I can conceive.
Where am I going wrong?
