Can't access website from LAN

HI, running SB server 2003 here. Have a small LAN behind the server, server is acting as gateway to static DSL, DNS is configured, running a webserver on the server for our website.

Here is the deal, I am sure it is something small I am overlooking, but maybe you can help me.

The site is accessible from any computer outside the LAN (ie, my home computer, etc.) However, none of the computers here can load it. It just jumps right to the "page cannot be displayed" error. Any ideas what I might need to do to correct this?

Thanks,
Derek

Hi Derek,
If you are using router then check your router configurations. Anyway it might not be possible for you to access your web server behind router using your domain name or ip address , try access using "http://localhost" or "http://(your local ip address)" from your LAN it works.
