I am not sure if this question should be asked here. If not, please let me
know.

I am trying to run a web server on my local machine with IIS on Win 2000. I
have two errors unexpected.
* http://localhost is not working. It has to be http://MyNetworkDomainName
in order to bring up the page.
* Also without the first http:// part, only MyNetworkDomainName is not
working. It redirects to the MSN seach page:
http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?srch=105&FORM=AS5&q=....

Please let me know what causes this problems and how to fix them.

Hello Cyont,

How many nic's do you have installed?

How many web site do you have have running?

What are they bound to? IP or all unassigned?

When you ping localhost, what comes back? What address did it try to ping?
Is that a valid address?

Can you ping that IP Address?

Where did MyNetworkDomainName come from? give us an example of what it
looks like?>

Can you poing the machine by NetBIOS name?


Thank you,
