Guys,
I have just recently added a new IP address to my server. I already have several IP addresses on the server. This new one is a little different in that it is completely different from the others I am using. The other IPs were all identical except for the fourth number. This new IP address is completely different. (I know I am not using the correct terms. If you want to straighten me out, feel free.)

I modified the connection for my LAN and added the IP address to it. Now I can ping it to the server, but when I try to visit it on the Internet, I get a request for a user name and password. Why am I getting this security credential request? What have i forgotten to do? Thanks for the help.
 
WHAT are you trying to access on the Internet? A web page on that server? RDP? File shares?

Well, I actually found and fixed the problem myself. I was adding an IP address to my W2K3 server so I could use it on a web site that needs its own SSL cert. The problem was that my DNS entries had not been updated and thus not pointing to the correct site in IIS. Thanks!
