IP only

[Guest john]

I am hosting 2 websites running IIS on 2k3. My problem is that the

website shows if I telnet port 80 with IP only, but does not work with

the name of the domain. Also the other website will not start, stating

that another site is already using port 80.

Please help.

Re: IP only

 

John,

if you want to host two Web sites on the same server, at least one of

following parameters must be unique for each:

- IP address

- TCP port number

- host header name

Refer to

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/883a9544-3f70-4d46-a6df-bbadbd1fe7de.mspx?mfr=true

for more info...

If you can connect to a Web site using its IP address but not its name, then

this typically indicates name resolution issues (DNS)
