make sure IIS is installed (must have Windows 2000 Pro/XP Pro, or Windows Server 2000/2003). Then in IIS manager you can either create a virtual directory off of the wwwroot or just place all the files in the wwwroot.

I believe if you are running IIS 6.0, you need to go into Web Extensions and enable ASP. It is disabled by default. |

sorry shadow I cudnt reply earlier was stuck with some other work. I want the site to be accessed only in the office.
But i wud like to know how to make it accessible throughout ie on the internet. Is it possible to host it on some server which is on LAN and has internet access in my office and i can access it from my home ?? I guess i will need the public IP address of the server.

as I suspected, this got nothing to do with Hosting - this term
is used to describe hosting service given to you by external company that provide you with Server and usually it cost money. moved to the IIS forum, as what you need is IIS like jmurrayhead said. step one will be to have one computer that will be used as Server. it better have good specs - at least 1 GB memory, 3 GHZ processor and 80 GB disk. it must have Server version of Windows, you can put Windows 2000 Server but better go with the newer 2003 Server. When you install either of those, you'll get IIS installed automatically as well - in the 2003 Server you'll have to Enable ASP like Camerodity said in the 2000 Server it's enabled by default. Having IIS, put your website files in the wwwroot folder and you're done. make sure to properly configure the Firewall on the Server to allow traffic on port 80. in order to have it accessible in the public internet you'll have to talk with your office ISP and ask for permanent IP address - having this, just connect your Server directly to the Internet and that's it. |

If you have a dynamic IP at the web server, you can use a dynamic dns service. Some cable/dsl routers have built-in support for some of the dynamic dns providers like zoneedit.com, no-ip.com and so forth.
Then you must forward port 80 through your router to end up at the web server computer. And your ISP must not block port 80. And any firewall software must have port 80 open. Then you can visit your server at the lan with something like http://www.mydyndnsname.com Be aware that internet-accessible web servers are a prime target for hackers.
