Hi Luke,
Thank you for using Microsoft Technical Support Newsgroups.
You will need to use the HTTPCFG utility included with the Windows Server
2003 Support Tools. These are located on CD#2.
From a command prompt, type the following command:
httpcfg query iplisten
You should see your internal IP address and 127.0.0.1
Next, type the following command:
httpcfg set iplisten -i x.x.x.x
- where "x.x.x.x" is your external IP address.
Again, perform the httpcfg query iplisten command to view the results. At
this point, attempt to start the website. If it still fails, it may be
necessary to restart the server for the changes to take effect.
Once again, thank you for using the newsgroups.
Best Regards,

- | Hi All
I am having a major problem creating a website accesable from from the
internet. Background info: server was upgraded from SBS2000 and therfore
has ISA2000 on it. It has two netwrok cards, one internal, and one
external, bot static. Since upgrading I need to create a new website for a
new stream of business. I have contacted my ISP to create a new domain for
this site and mapped it to the servers exteranl IP. All fine.
Now I go to IIS in the server management console, right click in the
"websites" pane and sleect New-->Web site. Follow the steps choosing the
the exteranl server IP address and typing in the new domain name in the
host header field. Finish the wizard and voila, the site wont start. Get
the error message "The network location cannot be reached. For more
information about Windows network troubleshooting, see windows Help.".
Right, now trying to troubleshoot this, if i change the IP to the internal
one it starts. I have rerun the the Internet Connection wizard and
selected Yes to the firewall bit. In the bit where it asks what parts of
the server to make availble from the internet, I have selected all,
including the website (wwwroot). still no luck. tried a bit of fiddling
with ISA but i'm not too hot on it so didn't come to a solution.
Something I find quite wierd is that the "Default Web Site" (wwwroot) is
only set on the internal interface but IS accessable from the internet.
Can anybody reccomend anything else I can try.
Thanks for your help,
Luke
