IIS inaccessible behind firewall

We recently moved our server behind a firewall. Prior to the move I could access websites running on the box without any problem. I reconfigured the sites for the new IPs assigned to us by our ISP and subsequently cannot browse to anything on the server. I have checked IIS and related services and everything appears to be running correctly. Localhost is not available on the server itself. This is a Windows 2K box, running IIS 5.0 SP2. Has anyone got any ideas?
 
Probably need to open port 80 through the firewall. Might need to add port forwarding as well.
Hope this helps
 
Thanks for your suggestion. We have opened Port 80 but I need to check if port forwarding has been added.
 
Actually, you would create a DMZ (de-militarized zone) record on the firewall for port 80 and point it to the IIS server...
