adress webserver

[keizersoz]

I use visual studio.net to design asp.net pages. The question is what adress should other users to see my webserver. And can I check this from the local pc as well?

other users from your LAN should be able to see your pages, but users from the internet cannot unless you get a fixed IP address from your ISP and regiter a domain which points to this address. only then they can see your pages by using the domain name you registered.

for the local area network, other users should just type your IP address in the address bar.

If you want your friends to see the pages you built and are using an ISP and you are assigned a dynamic IP address. After connecting to the internet you can see the dynamic ip address by going to the c prompt and typing ipconfig. Once you have that swap out 127.0.0.1 with the ip address you have been asssinged. Now anyone knowing that ip address can hit your box.

First of all is localhost the adress 127.0.0.1 ? Because localhost works,but when I type 127.0.0.1 I'm urged to insert a login and password?

Second when I type ipconfig I receive the following adresses:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : lan
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.39
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.0.0.138

But when I go to the site

http://www.whatismyip.com/

I receive my dinamic IP adress: this time it's 217.136.49.193. But when I type my dynamic ip-adress 217.136.49.193 , I connect to the configuration of my modem/router.

I'm trying to solve this issue for weeks, please someone can tell me exactly what adress I should write in the url, so that others can connect to my server?

those in the LAN can reach you using your IP address in IPConfig (10.0.0.39). those in internet cannot unles you have a domain registered and pointed to a fixed IP address assigned to you by your ISP!
