Problems using host headers
Dear Tony:
I'm running IIS 5.0 with Windows 2000 server. My problem is I have two sites on which I'm using host headers and sharing one common IP address. Both were working fine, but now one of the sites that uses port 81 is not accessible by the site name. The only way the users can reach the site is to use the http://name:81. I would like to know what could be my problem.
