I'm setting up a web server for my own sites with Windows 2003 Server. I've checked everything as far as configurations and everything checks out OK. My domain name is forwarded to my IP. I can't connect to my server to view my web pages. I'm using a network card with a cable modem. Do I have to use a router? Evan if I type my IP in the address bar it just times out. I've ping the server from my laptop on a dialup and it returns OK. What have I missed?

Thanks,
DonB

Do you have the firewall turned on? If so you need to specify that port 80 is open to accept connections.
