I have a machine running Windows 7 Home Premium x64.
IIS7 is up and running; I can navigate to localhost:80 and the spiffy IIS7 welcome screen appears.
When I try this on any of my other machines, the request times out. And, yes, I can successfully ping the IIS7 host machine from the other machines.
I've tried looking over the IIS7 documentation, and the answer is probably there but I can't find it.
Or is it maybe something to do with Windows 7 security?
Thanks.
I was having a similar problem (with Windows 8), was pulling my hair out -- I had turned off all firewall rules, triple checked bindings, iisreset, you name it. Turned out, chrome on my client PC was blocking it, because it had decided that
