Would I use VPN

As long as you are running a web server on your computer, you can create links to it. You just have to know the web address or IP address of the computer. Most people don't have a static IP address on their computer, so this can be a problem.

The simplest solution is to upload the pages from your computer to your website on the internet.

The other option is to use a Dynamic DNS service to register a name for your computer. There are several of these services including www.no-ip.com andwww.dyndns.org. Using these services, you simply tell them (using a client program) whenever your IP address changes and they update your DNS record.

As for VPN that is something different. Virtual Private Networking, used for connecting two networks together over a WAN link. (Make them look like they are on the same network). I believe it can also be used to virtually split a LAN into severals. VPN does use a good bunch of bandwidth, not recomended for slower connections.

I agree with answer 1, if you must leave these pages on your PC use some sort of a DNS service. TZO is also a good one and costs about 25 bucks a year. They also have a 30 day trial period. I used this to set up an FTP server on my home machine and it worked great, and like the chap said,it will even work if you don't have a static IP.

If you look on a site like tucows.com you can also find utilities called IP posters. Basically when you connect to your isp and get a dynamic IP, the poster updates a page on your permanent internet site re-directing it to your latest IP address.
