basic question

I am technically proficient and know programming, however networking, not
really.

I have developed a web site using Visual Web Developer. I currently have
IIS 5.0 on my machine. Today I had a static IP address given to me through
my ISP, I have registered a URL through my ISP and I have redirected that URL
to go to my IP address. So far so good, yes?

Now, when I try to view my page I get an warning stating that I am not
authorized to view the page. I went to the directory and gave permissions to
the ASPNET account. I also just ran a permissions wizard on the directory in
IIS and selected that this site is a public website.

What am I missing?

Thanks for the information

To follow up on this problem, I now can go to the site and I see the
directory only under IIS. I have tried to change the home directory local
path directing it to the folder that contains Default.aspx, but then I get an
error about the page cannot be displayed.

Thanks for any help.

If you don't get any useful response here, you might want to repost this
question in:
