    Change my URL with IIS and PWS

    Running IIS and Personal Web Server on my system I am hosting a site at work on the network, the URL defaults to my computername, this is OK but I want to change it so it is not the name of my computer, so it is not so obvious that the host is a computer on the network that people can access.

    Install a DNS software on the network, and then you'll be able to 'redirect' something like mendhak.com to that computer on which you're running IIS>

    You can modify the "hosts" file found in "C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc". Open it up for an example, it's pretty easy. Also, a similar file exists on Unix-like systems as well.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
