I have an exchange server with OWA setup and running. It's fine. (uses the
default web page)

I want to add a web site for internal use only on this IIS

I created a page in frontpage..
Started IIs on this server called exchange

Added a website.
Added a hostheader called 'onsite'

Used port 80 for both the default site and 'onsite'

both sites are running......
my defualt page is called index.htm and is listed in the site properties
documents page (1st one)

I go to another system on the local network and open a browser, but i cannot
access the page.. (get the page not found error)

Im really not sure of the correct syntax, but in my browser i've tried;
http://onsite
http://exchange/onsite
http://exchange/onsite/index.htm
http://onsite/index.htm



nothing works..................


I can go to http://exchange and get the default site under construction
page........

But I cannot get to the new site..
what can i be doing wrong??

Ok, so as I hit the send button, it suddenly occured to me what the problem
probably was, and sure enough it was.
Simply had to add 'onsite' to the DNS database and now I can reach the site
at http://onsite/

thanks anyway ;)
