Troubleshooting - Multiple Sites in IIS with 1 IP

I am a newbie trying to create a personal website for S#$@ & Giggles. I have 2 Domain Names registered and in IIS I have the Default Web Site and the Second Website setup. Lets just call them "Website1" and "Website2." Because I only have 1 IP address I have decided to go with running the different sites on different ports. I thought this would be the easiest. I gave "Website1" the binding of the IP Address XX.XX.XX.XXX:80 and the "Website2" XX.XX.XX.XXX:1080.

So I am able to get to the first website @ "Website1.com" but when I try to go to "Website2.com" I get an error "HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found." But if I type in XX.XX.XX.XXX:1080 I am able to view the site. Is there a way for me to fix it where I dont have to put the port on the end of the url to get to the website?

Thanks so much.

Google "host headers" The forum blocked me from posting the actual url

Hope this helps
