Client gives page cannot be displayed

I have written an asp.net application that has been running fine on
just the server. A client on the LAN will however always gives "The
Page Cannot Be Displayed" error when trying to connect.

Is there something special I need to be doing to connect?

Much thanks

Can the clients ping the server ?

Is the server reachable from the clients ?

Is the server identifiable by the clients ?

Hi

Yes the clients can ping and see the server.

Basically there is a LAN at the offices and they have been running the
application on the server for a few weeks and want it to be run on the
client as well now. I have everything set up in IIS that I am aware
of.

Are there any specific security settings that may need to be changed on
the server?
There is Norton's Firewall on the server as well. I thought that may
have proved to be the problem but I turned it off and was still faced
with it.

(This is the first time I've done this and so excuse me if I seem too
lost)

Thanks
