Setting up a webserver, IP info required

Hi all
My IP is of the non routable types, 10.40.100.xxx. It's a static IP. I'm using IIS to host a website. However, my IP being the non routable type, I cant get others to access my machine by typing the IP in the address bar ( http://10.40.100.xxx ) and my ISP's reverse DNS as per grc.com is 202-177-150-12.sify.net Now, is there anyway I can use NAT or any other method so people can access my site using the IP address? Please do let me know. Thanks

not a good idea to give out your address like that. Very likely that you'll be hacked.

I'd look into using apache, as it is in many ways better than IIS.
