another machine accessing asp pages

[ola123]

Im Beginner..
this might be a long shot

Im creating some Asp pages and linking that to an Access Database using some SQL script (in Microsoft Web Developer),

? how would i get another machine to access those pages and save info to the database?

Thanks


A link to a site or notes on creating and configuring a intranet would be nice

Thanks in advacne......

do you have the asp pages on the intranet iis (web) server or a stand alone web development server?

Yes IIS Web server is running on my machine... and the pages that i created are working perfectly,

but what i dont understand to do is to have a client machine access the pages.

Should there be some configuration that is need for the client machine to access the pages from the machine running IIS

First make sure the client machine can ping your machine.

Have you tried

http://your.ip.address/your_site/your_page.asp?

or

http://machine_name/your_site/your_page.asp?

You will have to allow IUSR_MACHINENAME modify rights in the security settings for the virtual folder if you have anonymous access enabled.

You can also set up a new website in IIS (As opposed to a virtual folder under the default website) with a port number so it would be

http://machine_name:port

number/your_page.asp?

Just to clarify: Do you want a user person on the other machine to view your ASP page in a web browser and submit an HTML form that causes the database to be updated?
