For instance, at a shell prompt take the result you get from executing "hostname" and form a URL like "http://myhostname:portnumber/..." (you'll have to know what port number apache is running on). Similarly, if you take the IP address of your box (you can get this from "ifconfig"), you can use that instead of the hostname.
