Configure IIS

[abhayatweb]

HI every one I have problem with IIS AND LAN ( local area network) so
When I test my asp page in localhost (http://localhost/<aliasname>)it works fine.
But when I test my asp page through the LAN network it means other PC testing (by creating it webshared document)it doesn't work
I check like this --> http://<computer name>/<alias name>/index.htm
but it gives "Page cannot be displayed..." error
The link (http://<computer name>/<alias name>/index.htm) also works fine on which it physically exists (server).
so any who know about this help me !
and explain me more detail
and how to configure IIS
OK
thanks
My PC configuration :-
win xp service pack2
IIS 5.1installed properlly.
connected to LAN (4 PCs connected, n using internet independently through Router)
:( :( :( :( :( :(

There are a few different ways you can hit the web page on another machine, as long as you can "see" the computer on the network. Have you tried:

http://<computer name>/

That should return the default web site IIS sets up. Also, try:

http://<computer ip address>/

That should also return the default web site IIS sets up. If you can't get those working it is probably something with your network setup where your computers can't see eachother.

Thanks for taking interest but i have solved the problem.
My Network Firewall setting was not set for http:// -----
control panel >> Windows Firewall >> Advance >> Lan Setting , Select web server (http).
Now its working.

Do you have write permissions on the path1??

Yes, I have selected the write permission when creating virtual directory(web)through iis.
