Is it possible to use php and mysql to run a database within a LAN. Connecting from a computer to the server with MySQL and PHP on it...??
Hi Nico! It's possible for sure. Why not?
If you don't run php as cgi you need a web server. Apache is very powerful and easy to install(even if windows version is not so bug free/stable like linux or other platforms version).

Enjoy! Ciao
