title: Trying to make my laptop a web server
body: <p>I'm trying to make my Laptop a temporary web server. It's been several years since I've set one up and I really didn't know what I was doing then =). </p>
  
  <p>Long story short is that IT will not have a server ready for awhile and I need to test my site with other endpoints (PC's, iProducts, Android).</p>
  
  <p>I have IIS7 installed and running. I'm using the Default Web Site that is set up and I put a simple Default.htm page in my inetpub\wwwroot folder.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
      &lt;head&gt;
      &lt;title&gt;Test&lt;/title&gt;
      &lt;/head&gt;
      &lt;body&gt;
          &lt;div align="center"&gt;
          &lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"&gt;
          &lt;tr&gt;
          &lt;td align="center"&gt;My Web Site&lt;/td&gt;
          &lt;/tr&gt;
          &lt;tr&gt;
          &lt;td align="center"&gt;Does It Work&lt;/td&gt;
          &lt;/tr&gt;
          &lt;/table&gt;
          &lt;/Div&gt;
  &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Using the IP address or the computer name I can access the site locally on the laptop and see the web page.</p>
  
  <pre><code>http://123.45.678.90/
  http://MyMachine/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I go to another machine on my Intranet, I can't get to the web server. I can however Ping both the IP address and the computer name.</p>
  
  <p>Is there something I have to set in IIS to make it public or something?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for the help in advance.</p>
