Unable to access the Web Site Inside the firewall

[AGA]

We can access the web site from outside the firewall but inside the firewall we are unable to access the web site. We have NT 4.0 server with IIS 4.0 and the firewall is Netgear FV 318. Could someone help me configuire the firewall or the IIS for website access. It was working fine and suddenly it stopped work.

Assuming your Web site and PCs are using unpublished addresses, then trying to access the site with the name (

http://www.website.com)

typically won't work. Can you access the site by using the IP address (unpublished number) instead of the name or published number?

One basic issue; port 80 (HTTP) in the firewall setup needs to allow access behind the firewall.

It may be a reverse NATing issue. Try accessing the site with the internal IP. If this works try setting up a internal DNS or maintain a global hosts file that your workstations can use..
