GOAL:

FACT(s) (Environment):

WebSpeed 2.x

FACT(s) (Environment):

WebSpeed 3.x

FIX:

When a request comes in through your ISP your router directs the request to the appropriate server based upon the router settings. So to test a website internally you only need access the page from another computer in your intranet via the machine name or it's internal IP. So if your computer·s network name is pcserver and your main page is main.html you could access it as thus;

http://pcserver/srcripts/cgiip.exe/wservice=wsbroker1/main.html

If you want to, you can add an empty frame in the /wwwroot folder that points to this page. Then your site can be accessed internally via;

http://pcserver/

This will exhibit the exact behavior as if you are outside the intranet.
