[QUOTE="muso, post: 42113, member: 40"] For your computers website, it's located at /Library/WebServer/Documents. Then you can access whatever you put in there by typing in [url]http://127.0.0.1[/url] in safari, or looking in the sharing prefs to get your external IP address and typing that in instead. For sharing files - my setup is such that there is an actual user called 'shared' and I put anything I want in its home folder to be shared. So when other people connect to my computer, an authentication box comes up and they type in 'shared' as the username. [/QUOTE]
