leave out the port number, now try it, i know its possible because i do it
but as far as i know, i didnt configure it in any special way
i also helps if you make sure apache is running
edit: also if its linux, make sure correct file case is used

This is how our office network is setup.
We have 10 computer all networked.
Each computer has an assigned IP address.
1 of these computers acts as the server and its IP address is 192.168.1.2
to access the PHP pages that are on that server from any other machine, all i do is type http://192.168.1.2/ into my browser.
You will not need to configure your router if this is the setup that you are aiming for becuase you aren't making and outside connection to the internet...it is on you local network.
