IIS Failure
I've recently activated IIS on my system (Dell GX270 Optiplex/2.8 GHz/512MB RAM, 80 GB HDD/USB x 8/Win2K Pro), and it seems to work OK...until I try to open my home page, when I receive a message "Failure to connect to server". Going to the Personal Web Manager screen, clicking on "IIS Topics", and I get the same message.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled IIS, but the problem persists. My I-net works OK (simultaneously)
I have a high-speed satellite (400-500 kb downlink, 56kb uplink) modem/transmitter/receiver set-up hanging off a USB. Could this be causing some problem?
I've contacted their wonderful service group to see if they have any input, but have received the same response that I get from McSoft -- silence. Lucky for them their billing/accounting department is functional. (FYI, for those wondering, it is DirecWay, and I rate them only slightly above dialup.)
Can anybody give a suggestion?
Thanks -- Dnd

WHy your using ISS in the first place I don't know...
If your developing ASP programs just grap Apache and Mono.
This allows you to use asp.net programs with apache, its a good system :D

well first of all, I'm all for Apache
but, as far as IIS goes, have you actually set the ip address of your set to the ip address of your network adapter?
You weren't very clear as to how you were trying to access your site, is it by ip, dns name, or just plain localhost?
