I'm trying to move our current running version of InstantKB from an old IBM desktop running an ancient version of IIS to our new Windows 2003 Server running AD and DNS. I managed to move everything over fine, but the trouble starts when I try and actually access Instant KB.

Cliff Notes:
- Set up IIS site on our DNS and AD Server
- Can access the site via http://localhost
- unable to access the site via http://triackb1, on any system except for the server
- DNS is not set-up correctly?

I've enabled IIS6 on the server (which is also the AD and DNS server) and created a new site, and ASP is running correctly, etc.

- When I try and access the KB via http://localhost, on the server, the KB loads up fine.
- When I type in http://192.168.1.111 (the servers IP), I'm dumped to the KB's error page, which is also correct. The FQDN we are licensed to is: http://triackb1)
- When I type in http://triackb1, on any workstations in our network, I get dumped to a "The page cannot be diplayed" page. why?

I think the problem is with the way I have the DNS set-up (or not set-up) - All the workstations are pointing to the server as the primary DNS, so I don't know what the problem is.

Any help would greatly be appreciated, as I'm a bit lost - more details can be provided details upon request.

I did reply but then read your post again and saw you are using Active Directory on the server itself so all your computers must be on the same domain correct?
