You need to change your apache configuration file too, i think.
The file is httpd.conf, as i remember.

Well, everything is normal. When you enter a website on the web, you can not access to the admin section of that website. I am not sure if wordpress is different from normal php website but if we consider it as a normal website, it is normal, that you cant access. Try to create ftp server.

hi,
If you install the Wamp Server, firstly check the infophp . if the infophp is show then your Wamp is install.and another computer You install the Apache software and go to docs folder , the docs folder is show in c drive , after run the web page on local host, may be your problem is short out.
