- Ensure that you don't have connectivity problems on both machines
- Try to connect to your web site with its IP address. If you fail, then the problem is IIS
- Try the DNS resolve. On the client PC go in command prompt and type nslookup. try resolving.
- make sure that your client PC is configured with your DNS.
