Hello,

I have web service that i have developed using vs 2005 in VB.

Currently i have 2 computers on a workgroup connected through a switch. I am using computer A to develop my web service and want to deploy run on computer B. I want to be able to run the web service to that I can use it from the Internet.

The web service is very basic and for the moment will just display the hello world.

I am not worried about security at this stage as this is only for testing purposes.


1) In solution explorer I tried to copy web site, I select create new web site.
I click create new web site and put the username and password or the remote computer. The VS sometimes frezzes for a while and does not access the remote server.

Is there a easier way to do this?

I am not sure if I have configured the IIS correctly on computerB.

Please could someone tell me the steps from setting up a web site on a remote computer to copying running the web service to be viewed from the internet.

many thanks for your help and time,

Steve
