Can't load asp.net app

[Wardeaux]

All,
I have an asp.net application loaded under WinXP/IIS. On that computer
everything works fine. When I try to access that webserver from another
computer, I get a "cannot load page" or goes to an internet search page. I
can ping the server computer (winXP) fine, it just won't recognize the
computer name or IP address when trying to access the website... any clues?

Have you installed SP2 on the machine that you are rtying toaccess? If so it is probably the new firewall feature which isturned on by default. Go to control panel/windows firewall andsee if it is turned on. If so try turning it off and see if youcan access the site from another machine.
