    Hi everybody

    I have DNN 4.0 instaled in my machine, Windows XP 64 bits with IIS 6. I have Visual Studio.Net 2005 and I build the DNN site from there, with the starter kit. Everything is ok in my localhost/site but if I try to access the site from another computer like

    http://192.168.0.253/mysite

    ou from the internet like http://80.81.82.83/mysite

    I just get an error that there is no page. But the default.aspx is there and all stuff in IIS working fine. Permissions are ok too, because my site works perfect in here.

    I have a router with the configuration open for port 80. And NAT option on. I can check that when I play online games with other ports not defined in the router, like 28960.

    Well, my DNN site works perfect in here but not from outside. Any ideias?

    Thanks for reading it.

    Add an alias.  Read this thread:

    Ops... I said thank you on the other thread, but I wanted to mention it here.

    THANK YOU!

    The alias was added and it worked.

    Just in the settings add:

    192.168.0.253/mysite

    or if it is a production server would be:

    mydomain.net/mysite

    Thanks for the fast answer. You rule.

    Let me add some more stuff in here. For example, if you are working in your work pc with some dynamic IP address you also need to add the ALIAS as

    83.20.81.14/mysite

    to show the site to some of your friends.

    So you could end up with at least 3 alias. Check:

    localhost/paradvd
    Edit 192.168.0.253/paradvd
    Edit 81.24.81.14/paradvd

    That's the example I have here.
