page cant be displayed... must have missed something easy

I'm a bit rusty on web management, excuse me for silly question.

I have a customer with unusual security who required me to deploy a separate web site in IIS because the standard user for the website already in-use doesn't have permissions to use certain components... long story short: I tried to deploy this new website but am getting "this page cannot be displayed" as if the server isn't accessible. I feel like I missed something simple, here are my steps:

created new folder, put a couple sample html pages in
opened inetmgr and created a new site, set site name "test" and physical path
set "connect as" my specific local user set up for this purpose, and tested settings (everything successful)
set hostname as "test.mywebsite.com". I'm thinking the error is here, is that not a good name to use? this is not going to be used externally and no name will ever be registered for this website.

If you have any advice on correct steps to deploy a new website or to server a particular page bypassing the default pass-thru authentication, I'd love to hear it.

and I forgot to mention, my customer is using win2012 with standard IIS version, but I tested this on a win08 VM and got the same thing, so the issue can't be related to IIS version or their weird security.

What is hte output of nslookup test.mywebsite.com ?
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Server:  *****.***
  2. Address:  *.*.*.*
  3.  
  4. Non-authoritative answer:
  5. Name:    test.mywebsite.com
  6. Address:  93.191.169.211
  7.  
If you also see the '93.191.169.211', then you are trying to view a page via the internet, and not a page on the server of your client.

If the andser of above is not '93.191.169.211', can you pleas privide output of this command:
curl.exe -I "http://test.mywebsite.com"
(curl.exe can be found here: https://curl.haxx.se/download.html#Win32 )
