accessing a webpage stored on a home server

_x000D_ You have two solutions. 1/ If you want to keep the default apache pages, add a virtualhost (there are tons of docs on this, I don't think it needs to be repeated here). 2/ If you don't care about the default apache pages, edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and change DocumentRoot to make it point to /home/Client5/ . Add an index.html file in there, hit the Raspberry IP in your browser, you should see your page. You might need to chmod -R ugo+rwX /home/Client5. I don't know what you have under /home/Client5, but if it's a regular user, this setup is highly insecure. There are a bunch of additional steps to take if you want to host under home directories (first step, don't put pages in $HOME but create a subdir). It is safer to have a dedicated place with proper perms outside home dirs unless you really know what you're doing.
