The IP of the second server is 192.168.100.2 and it is=20
running ISA so it is necessary to use port 7999. But even=20
without ISA installed and using port 80 I received this=20

Thanks for any help the tech docs came up short on this...

Hello,

Sounds like something is already listening on the port on the very same IP.

Try to run
netstat -ano
to find out what is listening on port 7999

Please find the solution of the Error which is happening while attempting to start the default webpage/websites in IIS 6.0.
1.Make sure that the ListenOnlyList sub key contains valid IP addresses in Registry. If the ListenOnlyList sub key contains an IP address that is not valid, you must remove the IP address or change the ListenOnlyList sub key entries to reflect a valid IP address.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters\ListenOnlyList
2.in order to stop and restart the HTTP service, you need to do this from the command prompt:
net stop http /y
net start w3svc

Thanks
