Unable to connect to WebPage from another PC [ASP.NET / IIS 7]

[Shaitan00]

I've built an ASP.NET webproject (VS 2008) and tested it perfectly fine locally (via LocalHost) using "http://localhost:64474/Project/Default.aspx" when debugging in VS 2008.

At this point everything runs fine.

 

I then installed IIS7 (and ran asp_regiis.exe -i) tried to access it non-locally using "http://192.168.100.100/Project/Default.aspx" (where that is the IP of my machine running IIS), again this seems to work perfectly fine (always on my local computer).

 

So, now for the real test, I went to another computer on my LAN (w/Router) and tried the exact same thing "http://192.168.100.100/Project/Default.aspx" and sadly it doesn't work

"Internet Explorer Cannot display the webpage"

Standard message.

 

Now - I am totally stuck - this is all I could think of:

- Could it be I need to open WebServer on my Operation System (Windows Vista 64bit Ultimate)?

- Could it be IIS7 that needs some special configuration?

- Could it be my router? I added port-forwarding of port 80 to 192.168.100.100 (thought that might do the trick)

- ... etc ...

 

Note - I don't have any fancy Firewall application running, only whatever came with Vista 64b Ultimate & my anti-virus...

 

At this point, as you can see, I am totally 100% lost - any help would be greatly appreciated.

If there is anything I can provide to help (turn on error messages somehow, provide parts of WebConfig.xml, etc...), anything at all please do not hesitate to ask...

 

Thanks,

Is windows firewall setup to allow incomming TCP/IP port 80 connections? If it is not, it may let you access it locally, but not from another machine.

 

What is your anti-virus software? there are many that provide basic firewall functionallity which can reak havok on your system.
