    IIS7 on N running ok, What roles do i need to turn on to publish?

    Hi Everyone,

     

    I have server 2008 running ok, IIS7 on running ok, the application runs ok I go to localhost/app and runs ok, everything’s ok.

    Do i need to turn any Server Role to make it live (Hello to the world) like the DNS Server role? I assume a static IS will be required too right?  Thanks for the help.

     

    I’m a designer but i always bough hosting i want to start hosting my own stuff.

    Correct, requires a fixed IP service, you have to register the name of your site (www.mypage.com)
    The DNS service can be external
     
    Contact your ISP

    You just need the Web Server role, then make sure firewall port 80 is open (by design when you install web server role, the port rule is enabled). if you need visitor to access your site via FQDN, then you need to have valid DNS service that provide name resolution for your server, etc. Else, you friend can visit the server via your public ip address.

    Cheers,
