Howdy all.
I am attempting to create by myself website and host it in your house using DDNS along with ZoneEdit.
So much to do ordinary short space of your time means that i’m undecided what is not working since you can find so many variables involved!
At any rate, heer is where I am so far and I hope someoen can guide me within the right direction. We have my domain brand, I have my ZoneEdit account and now have edited the Website settings as directed by ZoneEdit, all seems fine.
Installed the DDNS program suggested by ZoneEdit and that appears to be running fien very.
We have installed IIS6 on a XP machine i always access from a further computer on my personal home network by way of UltraVNC. Should’nt make adifference although home network is defined up on the DLink DI-624 router along with I obtained that external IP address after that and set it to the Zonedit account. Which worked OK.
Created a Electronic Dir on IIS and created an evaluation htm file referred to as Index. htm and set IIS to read it because the main file.
Experiment time, I can certainly ping myDomainName. com and MyIPAddy from anywhere which works fine but trying to open the site from a browser and the idea falls over toned! I get the particular message " Online server specified in your URL could certainly not be contacted. Please check your TRAFFIC or try your request again. "
How is the simplest way to test this site locally considering that I suspect I’ve not set it up on IIS correctly and I want to see if I can access my site coming from my home multilevel. How do I attempt this, what steps need I have to do
Any advice or questions to support me in solving this are significantly appreciated.
Thanks earlier,
Mitch…
Sounds like you’ll want to forward your ports or something. Where is niagra computer which is hosting yuor web blog
Hi.
That PC is with my home network, although it is physically within the same room MY SPOUSE AND I access it via UltraVNC because I put it to use for Media streaming at this time so it is attached to a monitor but Relating to full access to it.
We have forwarded both convey 80 and 30, are there any kind of others I should be familiar with
Thanks earlier,

Definitely,
Firstly to determine whether IIS is actually setup correctly open a web site browser on the host pc along with type http: //localhost or maybe http: //127. 0. 0. 1 If this specific works then it is any network issues possibly local firewall to the host or router security/port forwarding configurations. To test it to the local network by another pc find the local ip address on the host pc, (this is the answer via start> run> sort " cmd" press enter in that case type ipconfig after that press enter) and then typing the IP address within the web browser connected with another pc for the network.
Expect this helps.
