  set different port to IIS and Access without Port number Reply Contact Hi all. I have developed a sample page and run it in localhost as follows: http://localhost/Sample/Default.aspx Then I have changed the default port number  80 to some other port number (for eg: 1080). Now I have accessed the page as http://localhost:1080/Sample/Default.aspx But I need to access my page as http://locahost/Sample/Default.aspx regardless of port number. How can I access my page regardless of port number.

  Re: set different port to IIS and Access without Port number Reply Contact Hi One way of solving this could be using hostheaders on your website. Although you might have to add a record to your internal DNS og hosts file for this to work proberly. For your new website, hosting you current sample page on port 1080, you can change the port back to port 80 and then add a hostheader e.g. servername. For more information on how to work with hostheaders, see this great article by Kristofer Gäfvert: http://www.gafvert.info/notes/iis_multiple_websites.htm Hope this helps you on the way, to solve you problem.    ---- Peter Schmidt [MVP] ITPRO, MCTS, MCSE:S/M/I, MCDBA My Blog: www.iis-digest.com Danish IT Pro forum: www.it-experts.dk

  Re: set different port to IIS and Access without Port number Reply Contact This is possible. I suggest that you have these two websites: Default website New sample website  Leave the "Default website" with the default port (80) and the IP Address information to "All unassigned". For the "New sample website" use the default port (80) and under IP address information enter or select the server IP address: 192.168.1.3. This way the new sample website will respond to: http://192.168.1.3/SampleApp/Default.aspx and the "old" Default website will respond to http://localhost or http://servername or if the server has more IP addresses it will also respond to one of them. Hope this might help.   ---- Peter Schmidt [MVP] ITPRO, MCTS, MCSE:S/M/I, MCDBA My Blog: www.iis-digest.com Danish IT Pro forum: www.it-experts.dk

If you have multiple IP addresses, then the seocnd site will respond to any IP that isn't responded to by the first.  Although this only works on Server or Vista, since workstation versions from XP and prior will only serve a single site.
