local network access

[acidrain9]

i have windows xp pro installed with iis.

i want local computers on the network to be able to access my iis site, anyone
know how to do this?
i don't have a dynamic ip and i am not trying to actually host my application
on the web but just host it for the local network pc's.

Hi, It shouldn't matter that you don't have a dynamic IP Address. They should
be able to use your computername. See if they can ping it and then they can
just connect by [url]http://YOURCOMPUTERNAME/Site[/url] Hope that helps

Yeah! but firt of all, you should install yourself a webserver at the server
computer to allow your site to be viewable by the others, and than, like
greeckchild wrote, check your network connection to see it the other
computers are able to acess your server...

since you are using win xp pro, it already came with a IIS WebServer, so it
should be a great tip to check at windows help how to configure your
WebServer.

hope that helps...
