    Making web site visible for external access [situation explained]

    Reply Contact

    I have IIS7, Windows Vista on the server machine, and a web application currently running perfectly fine on http://localhost:81 of that machine.

    (port 80 is being used by XAMPP for another webpage, so changing it to 80 is not an option i would like to consider.)

    let's say my IP was 136.193.14.200.b

    at an EXTERNAL machine, typing http://136.193.14.200  gives me the xampp website.

    I suppose typing http://136.193.14.200:81 would give me the IIS one, but no, can't find a thing, it just timeouts.

    INSIDE the server machine,  http://136.193.14.200:81 works perfectly fine.. what am I missing?
