Hello Folks,

I have an ASP.Net 2.0 web application which was successfully debugged, published, uploaded and tested on IIS server. But the problem is, I can access this application on my localhost only but when I am trying to access this from some other machine which is also in the same network as my localhost in, it just simple not finding the application.

My machine's name is NODE5. And the name of the other machine is NODE15. I just typed http://localhost/<my virtual dir>/ on my localhost and the application pops up successfully. Then I tried on other machine by typing http://NODE5/<my virtual dir>/. But after hitting enter the following message is displayed on browser :-

Internet Explorer cannot open this webpage.....

Could somebody tell me what is actually causing the problem.....Plzz guys its very urgent....any soon help/rplys will be appreciated...

Thanks for any help.....in advance

Did you try http://NODE5/<my virtual dir>/. on the same IIS server?

You need to first make sure the server itself recognizes the host name.

thanks for your reply.....but I have already tried both techniques in my local host....both worked.....but the same seems to be worked on remote machines also....but it is not working as expected......

running the application on my own server is not the problem for me as well as not the topic to be discussed on this thread...my question was how to run the application from another machine which also resides in the same network as my localhost do....so if you have any solution to this then post.....

thanks...
