Hosting my web site with IIS [IIS 5.0]

Hey all,

I have been asking a lot of question lately about this but I'm still stuck with my problem. Can't connect to my server.

Here what I did :

Created my web site, copy/pasted it on my server wwwroot directory and that's it.

I take my IP on www.whatismyip.com and write it + my page extension

ex : http//:66.110.155.55/bblogin.asp

My browser doesn't find anything.
Do I have to write the port? I tried and it not working anyway.

Is there any option that I have to modify? I did forward port 80 and everything should be find with the firewall.

Thank you.

Tulkas.

is this on a local machine? if so, try: http://localhost/bblogin.asp

also, not sure if this is a typo but you have the colon in your example in the wrong spot: http//:66.110.155.55/bblogin.asp it should be http://66.110.155.55/bblogin.asp

Tested http://localhost/bblogin.asp and it's working.

Yeah it was my mistake while writing the post sorry :P the right format doesn't work ether.

I thought about something. My server have several computer connected to it and how do he know which of them is hosting the server. Is it a setting or by forwarding the port it's ok?

Thank you,

Tulkas

Maybe your internet provider is blocking port 80

And in your router you need to forward port 80 from the outside to a specific computer on your internal LAN. It's easiest if you give your web server a static IP on the internal LAN.

I tried with port 8080 and 8088 but it diesn't work ether. Do I have to forward them to my computer?

And about forwarding port 80 you mean to forward it to the server computer?

Well, if you want to try hosting on a non-standard port yes, you must direct traffic on that port to your webserver computer, and you need to reconfigure your webserver to operate on the non-standart http port.
