Running CentOS 6 as Guest on Windows 8

Post by vsaletto »

I'm hoping to have a situation where I can write code in the CentOS guest, and have it presented to me in a browser under the host OS. I'm currently using Windows 8 as my host.

All I want to is to be able to get PHP code that is in /var/www/html on the guest machine, and have it show in the host machine's browsers. Suggestions?

I'd show the code I'm using, but this BBS has I have to be a member for 1 day and have 1 posts before I can post urls, so I'm withholding right now.

Set the guest to use Bridged or host-only and it will work.

You will of course have to have a web server plus extra packages for php on the guest, but that is out side the scope of this forum.
