I'm running Apache on Windows XP via Xampplite, and could use help configuring my virtual directory. Here's what I'm hoping to do on my dev box:

  1. I want my source files to live outside of the xampp htdocs dir
  2. on my local machine I can access the project at http://myproject
  3. others on my local network can access the project at my.ip.address/myproject
  4. keep localhost pointing to the xampp's htdocs folder so I can easily add other projects.

I've got 1 & 2 working by editing the windows hosts file, and adding a virtual directory in xampp's apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf file. I don't immediately see how to do 3 without messing up 4.
