Run localhost but not under machine name

[Jennyfer J Barco]

Hello I have a project in .NET, when I open the internet explorer and write
"localhost/projectname/default.aspx" it will open my page and do everything.
But if I try to run using "mymachine/projectname/default.aspx" it won't
open, I get Page not found message. I need it to work because I need to run
the application from a different machine pointing to my project. I can do it
with some .Net projects in other machines but not with mine. Am I missing
something? What can I do?

When I make "ping mymachine" from other machines in the network I do have
answer, it recognizes the machine name.

Thanks
Jennyfer

The change you need to make is in IIS under the "Default Web Site." Right
click and select Properties. Select the Web Site tab, and under the Web
Site Identification section click the Advanced button. In the "Multiple
Identities for this Web Site" add an entry using your machine name as the
Host Header Value.
