How do you host the website Externally? thats the part im having trouble with

[HellHoundAdmin]

@73HNiNJ4 If by externally you mean being able to access your site from another computer on the internet, please go ahead and watch my videos on allowing access to your web-site/server part 1 & part 2. The best way to make this happen is to have a static ip address issuesd by your ISP (not a local static ip address), if not the video will show you how to do it without a static ip also

Hey i hope you still answer questions on this video. I have done all this and it seems so easy, but every time I try to access my localhost through my browser I get an error that says it can't access the related configuration files due to insufficient permissions. I am the only user on this computer, and have checked that I have all admin rights. I don't know what the problem might be :(

@ShufflofigusCam Hey there, I have uploaded a video to show you the simplest way of solving this problem. Follow the instuctions in the description of the vid if you want to only change permissions for a certain part of your "wwwroot" folder in your "inetpub" folder

The video link is watch?v=A_0SqnOPSng

@73HNiNJ4 Try to add a firewall rule that allow all port 80 connections.

I got it... I just have to add ""IIS_IUSRS" to the folder security settings.

Thanks

Hi, I get Error 401.3- Unauthorized. You do not have permission to view this directory or page b/c of the access control list (ACL) config or encryption settings for this resource on the Web server. What should I do?
