Hi everyone,

I have created an ASP.NET Webservice that runs on IIS Server. It works
fine
with Windows 2000.
When tested on XP and 2003 we get an error saying cannot connect to the

server.

1.. It seems that IIS though present on both the systems was not
accessible from remote machines.
2.. That is we are able to access the IIS server using localhost but
not
using the IP address or machine name from a remote machine.
Is there some configuration that needs to be done for WinXP and
Win2003
Server to make the IIS accessible.

Any help would be appreciated.

with thanks and regards

Vibha
 
You are running the correct .NET framework in IIS that matches the version
in which the ASP.NET Webservice was written in?

For example if you wrote the service on Win2k .NET 1.0 (VS2k2) then make
sure the WinXP and/or Win2k3 OS has .NET 1.0 (v1.0.3705), and so on.
..NET 1.1.4322 VS.NET 2k3
..NET 2.0.50727 VS.NET 2k5 - bit version must match also, either 32 or 64
bit if running on a 64-bit server.
