I am not sure if I have a firewall running, but assume not since I changed
that IP address in the IIS admin and was able to access my web sites from my
other PC's with NO trouble at all. :-) THANKS!!!!
You wouldn't happen to know what steps I need to take from here to make them
available through my DSL to the rest of the net? I do have a static IP from
my ISP.
Thanks again,
Kevin

First question, do you firewall running on the machine that you want
to act as a webserver? If you do, you will need to disable it or poke
a hole through it for port 80. Otherwise, none of your other computers
will every be able to connect.
Next, all you need to do is to point the website in IIS to the IP
address of your computer. This can be done by going into the admin
part of IIS and selecting the website, then select the IP address (the
other one, not 127.0.0.1). Then, go to another computer, open a
browser and type in the IP address for your server.
I don't use IIS, otherwise the instructions would be a lot more precise.
