  Can't access my internal website with ip address while no problem with machine name Reply Contact  Hello folks, I recently took over a server, there are: 1. a sharepoint website. 2. at the same server, there hosts some applications. The current issue is: I can access those applications with: http://servername/sitename But I CANNOT access them with: http://ipaddress/sitename, it will return the following error message: Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred: "Operation timed out" The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a later time. For assistance, contact your network support team. I am not sure if this is caused by sharepoint server setting, currently people access sharepoint site by: http://servername There is no problem in ping the ip address or the server name, never time out. Thanks.

Thanks lots.

  Re: Can't access my internal website with ip address while no problem with machine name Reply Contact Does this usually happens after the pages loads for a long time and then throws this message... ???

But with http://servername/site, it won't take that long to render the page.

But like I said, even for sharepoint, I CANNOT access it by ip address either.

  Re: Can't access my internal website with ip address while no problem with machine name Reply Contact Instead of giving them different host header values try giving them different ports and then try to access with the ip:port   Regards, MA Khan http://www.iisworkstation.com “Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
