How to Turn Your PC Into a Web Server (7 Steps)


Click the 'Start' button, and then click 'Settings', then click 'Control Panel'. Note: Some versions of XP don't have a 'Settings' selection on the Start menu; they just skip straight to 'Control Panel'. The main point is that you want to get to the Control Panel.
Double-click the 'Add or Remove Programs' icon.
Double-click the 'Add/Remove Windows Components' icon.
Click the Internet Information Services (IIS) check box. Please note: Some versions of XP do not have IIS available. If you don't see the IIS check box in the 'Windows Components' dialog box, your computer simply does not have that capability.
Select 'Details', and then click the check box entitled 'World Wide Web Service'. Then click 'OK'.
You will come back to the Windows Component dialog box. Simply click 'Next' to begin the installation process for IIS.
There you go! You have officially set up your PC as a web server! Make sure to test it with a basic ASP test page to ensure that it's serving the page properly.

How to Host a Website on a Server


Enable the Web hosting software on your server. In Windows, this software is called 'Internet Information Services' and can be found in the 'Administrative Tools' section of the Control Panel, under 'Add/Remove Programs.' Check the box for 'Internet Information Services' to enable the Web server software. If you are on a Macintosh computer, you can find this in the 'Sharing' section of the System Preferences. Enable 'Personal Web Sharing' to start the Web server.
Put the home page of your website in the root folder of the Web server software. All the pages in your website should be in this folder or in folders beneath it. In Windows, this folder is 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot.' On a Macintosh, it is '/Library/WebServer/Documents' on your primary hard disk. The name of your home page file should be 'index.html.'
Test your Web server by opening the home page in a browser such as Internet Explorer (Windows) or Safari (Macintosh). You should be able to access your new Web server by using the server itself or any other computer that is on the same local network. If you are testing it on the server itself, the web address is simply 'http://localhost.' If you are on another computer, the web address will be the IP address of your computer.
