    What kind of network are you on?
    That might help some of the AO members answer your question.
    Try giving as much info as possible without giving your location/ip/etc away ;-)

    I just have this running on my home box. It's not going across my LAN. But I can't even go to http://127.0.0.1 without an http 500 error

    Ratman: What about "http://yourexternalipaddresshere" or "http://localhost/" ? (No quotes of course)

    I'd look at your permissions/configs in IIS. This is usally where you will find what is causing problems like this.

    Also, check what's going on in your HOSTS file.
