Make Apache to listen in multiple IPs

apache-2.2httpd.confipport

I'm in a big LAN, which is behind a proxy/firewall
I'm working with an apache/php/mysql application, which is hosted in a small server besides my workstation. This server is connected to the LAN also and is behind the proxy:

The server has a local IP assigned: 10.64.x.x
Also, this server has a public IP assigned (or redirected from within the proxy/firewall) which is: 200.41.x.x

I can't access public IP from LAN, but I can ping to the public IP from outside the building

How should I configure Apache to listen also for public IP and open the 80 port for people accessing from outside the building?.
It is set now to Listen 10.64.x.x:80

Thanks a lot in advance,

Not sure I understand what you are saying, but typically would just listen on 80 and tell the virtual hosts to listen on all IPs. Something like:

NameVirtualHost *:80
Listen 80
<VirtualHost *:80>
    ...
</VirtualHost>

Something like

On "Server":

socat TCP4-LISTEN:10000 TCP4-LISTEN:4200

On "Client A"

socat TCP4:Server:10000 TCP4:localhost:4200

On "Client B"
Configure the client to connect to Server:4200

Alternatively, have a look at SSH port forwarding.

Port forwarding with proxy server

If outgoing connections are relatively open, you can ask ssh(1) to create tunnels for you.

ssh -R *:8888:localhost:80 username@proxyserver.example.com

Now, connections to proxyserver.example.com:8888 should be forwarded to your local port 80. The details from the ssh(1) manpage:

 -R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport
         Specifies that the given port on the remote (server) host
         is to be forwarded to the given host and port on the
         local side.  This works by allocating a socket to listen
         to port on the remote side, and whenever a connection is
         made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the
         secure channel, and a connection is made to host port
         hostport from the local machine.

         Port forwardings can also be specified in the
         configuration file.  Privileged ports can be forwarded
         only when logging in as root on the remote machine.  IPv6
         addresses can be specified by enclosing the address in
         square braces or using an alternative syntax:
         [bind_address/]host/port/hostport.

         By default, the listening socket on the server will be
         bound to the loopback interface only.  This may be
         overridden by specifying a bind_address.  An empty
         bind_address, or the address ‘*’, indicates that the
         remote socket should listen on all interfaces.
         Specifying a remote bind_address will only succeed if the
         server's GatewayPorts option is enabled (see
         sshd_config(5)).

         If the port argument is ‘0’, the listen port will be
         dynamically allocated on the server and reported to the
         client at run time.
