    Hello,

    1. You should publish your website on local IIS.

    2. Check your firewall settings to enable access of port 80 (http).

    3. Type in the browser of another computer the IP address of your IIS server, and you should see your site.

    4. Set your local DNS settings and give some name of your IIS server, so you could access it by typing just the name, not IP address.

    Regards

    You can't use "localhost" from the remote computer as that name is like a nickname for the computer that you're logged on to. The IP address should work though, and as it doesn't, means there some network issue. Does the IIS machine have windows firewall or other firewall installed? If so it's probably blocking access.

     Thanks...........In the remote computer the windows firewall is there(ON)........and main computer and the remote computer are in LAN(internet connection)........

    Is the internet connection sufficient ?? or any ethernet connection we need ?????

    IIS is installed in the remote computer...

     If they are in the LAN then your current setup shouldnt be a problem .... But not until Firewall blocks the port you are using for your website...

    You dont need IIS to be installed on the remote machine to view your website ... but what you need is a .Net runtime if you dont have any, for running your ASP.Net app...

    if your remote machine is also XP then you shouldnt have a problem with the port 80 being open unless someone has played around with it :)

    Just open up IE from the remote machine and type /http://<your-wesite-ip>/<pagename>  that should take you to your ASP.NET application. If this is not working check if static content is coming up or not... Let us know the error message if you get any !

     Thanks........But I did not install any .net sftware in th remote computer......Is this any problem.........IIS is there.....

    Without the sftware I getting "Page cannot bedeplayed " error......

    Will I have to install the sftware in the remote computer ???????

      /http://<your-wesite-ip>/<pagename>   website-ip means the computers IP ...isn't it?

    No - the remote computer only needs a browser.  Make sure that friendly error messages are disabled in IE and report back with a detailed error message.

    Also ... the URL was not given to you in the correct form, there is an errant forward slash before the http, it should be http://192.167.1.12/Crimereportingsystem/Default.aspx.  Make sure that windows firewall on 192.167.1.12 is allowing port 80 to pass through ...
