| I have some ASP pages I'm developing and they all work fine if I use https://localhost/file.asp, but they don't work when I use 127.0.0.1/file.asp. Also, other workstations can't access the asp files across the LAN as well. I originally thought this was a connection string issue, but that's not the case here. Also, I can use https://machinename/file.asp from the IIs server and that works as well.Suggestions?Thanks! |

| well it depends on the IP address of 1. your server which in this case is your workstation2. The IP address set in your IIS MMC snap inrun an IP address test on command prompt, type ipconfig/all |

As always, please define "doesn't work". page not found? error messages? app works but not well? database connections don't work? etc.- Jeff |

Hi Peter127.0.0.1 is a loop back test IP, its reseverved for IP less machines or to ping the NIC card.If you have a static IP address for your localhost website in the MMC snapin it wont work, maybe thats the problem |
