IIS configuration on Windows 2000

[CFix]

I want to set up IIS on a Windows 2000 Professional Machine.
The problem is :
The "IP address" under Advanced TCP/IP Settings are 'DHCP Enabled'.
How can I get rid of "DHCP Enabled" or how can I run a website with ASP pages on it locally (just for the user on that machine or may be even Intranet). I actually want to try some ASP pages.

The route that I follow to get the "DHCP Enabled" is:

Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> Network and Dial up connections-->Local Area Connections--> (Properties)--> TCP/IP--> (Properties)--(Advanced)--IP Addresses

DHCP shouldn't be a problem.. Almost all my systems are setup that way.

YOur problme is more likley than not that you haven't set up the site in IIS correctly.

IN iis, find you sites folder, then right click it, select properties, then click the application Settings section of the Directory tab click Create.

At that point you should be able to browse to your asp pages using the following syntax options..

localhost\aspapp\myasppage.asp or
Computername\aspapp\myasppage.asp

where aspapp is under your default website..

Control PNAel-->Network Connection-->(probably Local Network Conection)-->PRoperties-->TCP/IP->Properties-->Instead of Automatic IP, use the option to set it up manually. Noe you have to be aware of the right information you will put there, like gateway, subnet mask and the irght IP address, be careful if you have on your netework a DHCP server, you will have to exclude the IP address you use on that computer fomr the scope the DHCP server is using.
