Access IIS website from network computer - asp.net

I have setup a website in my local pc (IIS). I can access the site with my computer using
"http://localhost:8088" and "http://myip:8088" but I can not access the site from another pc in network.
Anyone can tell me how can i do it??

If you PC is on a domain the you need to add your PC's name/network name and IP in the hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc of the other PC. Also ensure that port 8080 is available on open on the remote PC. Ensure that the other PC can ping your PC or at least connect to it if ICMP packets are switch off. For multiple PC on the domain I suggest setup DNS and your IIS settings properly to expose your PC to everyone.

How to access xampp from another pc via LAN?

I am running XAMPP on my windows 10. and installed WordPress site. All working fine on my pc and other PCs in my network.
I just changed my router.
My site is working on my PC but not working on other PCs.
When i connect with WiFi, its working. If i connect with cat5 wire, its not working.
Check your IP-Addresses and network configuration (e.g.: Gateway). Port Forwarding may also be needed on the new router.
For a better answer I'd need more details. For example, can you ping the other PCs on the network? Are you able to connect to the internet?
You should also check your firewall.

Making websites hosted in localhost "port" available to all on network

I have a website hosted in IIS in my local PC.
I can access to my IIS from other computers in the network by typing in http://my_lan_IP. However, when I try to get access to a specific port (http://my_lan_IP:8888) in my local PC, it says the "The site can't be reached."
I disabled all my firewalls and even tried allowing the specific port through Windows Firewall, but it didn't work. Viewing my IIS hosted site on other machines on my network
Thanks so much for your help :)
FYI: I am using Windows 10. My goal is to connect to the locally hosted ASP.NET website from other machines on the network.
Your web server needs to be configured to serve HTTP on port 8888 "for that particular website", in order for a client to connect to that port.
By default, your website is served on port 80, which is omitted from normal addresses. All http web addresses, if not specifying a port, is actually running on port 80, or 8080.
Your windows firewall will not effect local connections you make to your own pc. Get it working on your own machine, and then worry about firewalls that block connections from other machines on the network.
I was able to solve the issue by configuring a host header for a website. Thank you all for your help :)

How to host a Website locally using iis to be accessed by other computers on same network?

I have an asp.net website and i have hosted is locally using iis.
http:localhost:3314
I have a TpLink router with ip 192.168.0.101. When i used ipconfig it show the ip address of the device 192.168.0.101 and the default gateway 192.168.0.1.
This is my laptop and connected via wifi. Also the website is locally hosted on this laptop.
Then i connect my mobile via wifi it also show the ip adress 192.168.0.101 to the mobile.
My question is that how do i access my website from my mobile or other computers.
The devices cannot have the same IP due to conflicts!
Maybe DHCP is enabled and you have to disable this option.Otherwise if the device has for example the ip 192.168.1.56 then the site will be accessible via http://192.168.1.56 .if that doesn't work, there is a chance that there is a firewall running on your computer, or the httpd.conf is only listening on 127.0.0.1

VMWare Fusion accessible hostname on network

I have a virtual machine with Windows 8 running. This VM is configured as a shared network with my Macbook Pro. From my Macbook Pro, where i'm running the VM I can access the ip address over the network.
But when I try to access it on a different computer in the network I can't access it. When I change my network configuration to bridged I can access it, but when i'm on another location, the ip address of the VM is changed. And thats not what I want.
Solution to this problem was that i needed to add ".local" after the hostname. For example my VM has a hostname "CoolMachine", the url in the browser wil be "CoolMachine.local" :)

WAMP Server accessible by all pc's in the local area but one

I have installed wamp server in a local area network.
All the PCs are able to access the Apache default page when type http://server_pc_ipaddress,
but one pc can't access it. Unfortunately it's my boss laptop :D.
It is always connected to the network and having the same class of ip, subnet and the default gateway etc. I can ping successfully this laptop and vice versa. What could be the problem preventing this computer from accessing the server?
Try turning the firewall off on both devices for a moment and see if it works, if it does its being blocked and you need to allow whatever ports it is blocking.
