While you are installing an Internet Web server on a client's network,
the owner of the company tells you that he also wants to build a Web
server for internal use by the company's employees. This intranet Web
server will not contain confidential info, but it should not be
accessible from the company's Internet Website. To do this, you create
a second site on the Web server. The internet site uses port 80 and the
intranet site uses port 283. Assuming that the Web server's IP address
on the internal network is 10.54.3.145, what should the users on the
company network do to access the intranet Website using Internet
Explorer? Please help with this Vista homework question, details would
be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Hi Gretchen,
Your question is in fact not server related, but client related.
<quote>
....what should the users on the company network do to access the intranet
Website using Internet Explorer?
</quote>

Do some Internet research about what should users enter in the address
dialog box in their web browsers to access web pages that are not using
default port. FYI the web address is (sometimes incorrectly) called Uniform
Resource Locator or URL.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator

Hint
Look at the bullet that starts with:
"The port number is optional; if omitted, the default ..."

Good luck with your assignment.

When you reference a webpage the general format of the url is:
protocol://name(or ip):port
If you don't specify the port number then port 80 is assumed. So
www.google.com and www.google.com:80 are the same.

So from this you should be able to work out the answer to your homework
question.

Personally though if I had this as a requirement I would not go the route of
using different port numbers. See Dave's post, as the link he gave covered
the different options. In a class room situation I can see why you might
propose a different port number (as its easier to explain than the preferred
real-world solution.)

And thank you for *telling* us that it's a homework question, rather
than trying to tell us "my boss wants me to...".
