Hi Everyone,

Sorry, this is probably the wrong newsgroup (I could not decide between
here, Virtual Server or Networking!)

I am trying to set up a local Intranet (a local website, not file share
system) and I am using IIS 7 because this is a very advanced asp.net
website. I have got it working on my machine, but I cannot get it to
work on any other machine connected to my network. They can all access
my file share and normal network, but cannot use the IIS localhost.

I have read about changing the Hosts file, but when I try to ping
localhost, I do not get a valid IP to enter in the Hosts file. I am
obviously doing something wrong. Does anyone have any tips on how to do
this?

After yet more research, is this a better way of trying: Set all local
IP addresses to static. Note my static IP. This website inhabits a
special folder, not directly on my IIS server which is making things
more difficult. Can I add this to the Hosts file:

{My Local IP}\{Website Directory} localhost\{Website Name}

eg: 192.168.2.2\Test localhost\Test

Thanks for any advice,

Richard
