Hi,

I am working on a Win2K machie with IIS and .net installed. I have made a website which i am trying to view. I have static ip for my computer (I have a cable connection). Anyone on the internet can ping as well as ftp my ip address, but the moment they try to open any htm file they get a error that the "Page cannot be dispalayed". at the bottom of the screen it says "cannot find server or DNS error". On my computer i can view it as You must be logged in to see this link. but no one else can view it. I think it has to do with myuser permissions on the wwwroot but am not sure. Please help me out.

Thanx in advance,
CrystalMaze

Hi,

I don't know enough about .net to be able to help you. Try asking on these boards - You must be logged in to see this link.

Failing that, I always found the Microsoft newsgroups helpful - news://news.microsoft.com

There should be at least one group for dotnet.

In the MMC goto the properties of the website in question.

Are anonymous users allowed ?

Hi,

I managed to get the solution. The problem was the cable provider was blocking port 80 which was the default port. By changing the port no it started working.

Thanx for the help,
Crystal Maze
