Connecting to Web Server on LAN

ptr2void

I am very new to asp.net I am hosting a web server: http://localhost:1094/test/Default.aspx And I want to access that page from another computer on LAN.. What should be the url?? I am using this: http://172.16.216.188//localhost:1094/test/Default.aspx But this doesnot help.. Does it require some special priviledges??

I tried this url on my own computer: http://172.16.216.187:194/test/Default.aspx instead of http://localhost:194/test/Default.aspx but this dosent seem to work.. What could be the issue?

use this http://172.16.216.187/test/Default.aspx in both system windows firewall should be in off. also test folder should be in web sharing.

Nothing is Impossible. Keep always Smiling... :)

Thanx for the reply.. It works.. Now my next question is.. How do you, run a program in Client's system using asp.net?? Like here in LAN, I want to run some program (say notepad) in the system in which I give the above url..

Ok... Say there is a node A and from this I am trying to access node B (the web server) with url: http://172.16.216.187/test/Default.aspx Now what code shall I write in the Default.aspx.cs at Page_Load (at node B, the web server) such that any program (say notepad.exe) runs on node A. I tried : System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("notepad.exe"); But this does not help.. Any solution?? Thanx in advance..
