    C:\Inetpub\wwwroot is the folder where your IIS runs, if you do not have this folder IIS will be configured to use another folder. To know which folder you can go to Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Information Services (IIS) Click the + open till you have a list of websites running on your computer Search that one that you wish to access from other computers and the name that's mentionned over there is the name you should use then.

        What is the address you test with?? Should be something as http://localhost/mywebsite/ or http://127.0.0.1/mywebsite/ then take that "mywebsite" part and paste it into http://yourpcname/mywebsite/

            Okay, but then it opens in web browser i hope (otherwise it can't be an asp.net website) so in a web browser you have an address bar somewhere ... in that addressbar should be the url, the url is that that you need in my previous post.

                Then you type in the browser of those other persons http://:1281/mysite/ with your pc name, the name of your pc as it is known on the local network, what you also can use is your ip-address (start->run->cmd->ipconfig) and read the number like 192.168.2.25 for example the you can use http://192.168.2.25:1281/mysite/

                    NOOO in stead of 192.168.2.25 you have to use YOUR IP ADDRESS (which i don't know so I can't tell you, you have to look it up!) Go to START, press "RUN", type in "CMD" press "OK" typ in "IPCONFIG" press "ENTER" you get some letters on your screen one will say IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.25 (but it will be your ip address, not likely this one) you take THAT IP ADDRESS (which is YOURS) and make with THAT number the combination http://YOUR IP ADDRESS/mysite/ and give that to those people.
