CD Database Web Application

[rctneil]

Hello,
I am buildinga small CD web application for my family to use at home. Since it doesn't need to be accessed from outside our home we don;t wnat it putting onto a web server for everyone to access. How can we host it at home?

I don;t want to have it just on a local computer as that may not be on all the time.

What can be done to solve this issue?

Thanks

Regards,
Neil

I understand that. What I meant is can Ihave a small machine sat somewhere in the house with it on it which stays on all the time? and if so, how do i set that up?

the application is using apache, php and mysql.

How can I secure that system so that it's only accessible inside the home network?
