Hi,
Are you accessing the website with a DNS name? As far as i know, it
shouldn't matter if IIS has a website configured with the same name or not,
because Internet Explorer should ask the DNS server for the IP, and then try
to connect to that IP. Have you configured the DNS server correctly? Do you
use a lmhosts file?
Have you tried to connect to the website using another machine? It works? It
sounds more like a Networking problem than an IIS problem, maybe you will
get a faster reply in one of the networking newsgroups?
