[Mediawiki-l] Can you install MediaWiki 1.6 on your own network??

[Hans Voss]

Bekki, yes this is possible. It is even possible to set it up just on your
own machine.

There are two approaches to this:
1) Tell the Apache webserver to only listen to IP adresses on the LAN (mysql
should only listen to the apache server anyway)
2) Use a firewall to block access to the wiki to anyone outside the lan.

(oh, and (3), combine both).

This is not a wiki issue but a Apache or network configuration issue.
