i set up a new sp site; central admin points to the web server. I can only reach the site while on the web server; I can't reach it from my pc or from the app server. 192.168.68.12 is the ip of the server and it is on port 8084 cause there is a site on 80. the bindings in iis are: host name: testsite port: 8084 ip: 192.168.68.12

Hi, Sorry i could not understand your question. Can you please tell me in detail. What you have done? Is it the FBA site? If you have created a new site on port 8084 then you have to check your Alternate Access Mapping. You have to define the port no. with your IP. http://ServerIP:POrtNo./ Check your mapping correctly then let me knowCheers, Hemendra-MCTS "Yesterday is just a memory,Tomorrow we may never see"

hello if you want to access your Sharepoint site outside of the web server you have several options: 1. if you need access the site from any location with Internet access you need to register public domain name in the domain registart. After that you will need to configure alternate access mappings for your Sharepoint site (Centra Administration > Operations > Alternate Access Mappings) and host headers in IIS on your web server 2. if you need access your Sharepoint site from internal network only it is not necessary to buy domain name in the domain register company. But you still need to configure alternate access mappings for testsite. Also you need to edit hosts file in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts. You need to add the following record: 192.168.68.12 testsite After that all requests from local computer to the "testsite" URL will go to 192.168.68.12 IP address. Also if proxy server is used in your organization you will need to add testsite into proxy ignore list: in IE Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN settings > Advanced > add testsite to "Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with" textarea. After that you will be able to access your Sharepoint site outside of web server.

Hi, First of all, I suggest that you need to turn off windows firewall. If it is Server 2008, it will block it by default. Have you tried to reach site which port is 80? If it is not successful, please replace port number except 80. Because windows firewall doesn’t allow to access this port number sometimes. Second, check out whether you are administrator in the application pool accounts. Check SSL works for all sites. In addition, have you pinged your IP address with successful? If not, please check out configuring DNS appropriately. Best regards, David HM
