Cant access local website?
I have a web based program running on a server on a small network. It's running on IIS 6.0. I am using dyndns to replicate the IP address. I can access it from outside the network but cant access it from inside the network. I know this is a simple IIS setting or something. Thanks in advance.
Thx. There is a server and 2 PCs . They all connect into the back of the modem/router. Its fairly basic. The Server is running IIS and dyndns is running on the server due to the dynamic IP address to the ISP.
I cant use the ip address to connect or (localhost). I have to use the dyndns address due to the registration of the app.

This is most likely a firewall issue. DDNS is maintaining the entry using a public IP address; your router/firewall maps that public IP to your web server's private IP (usually 192.168.*.* or 10.*.*.*) via NAT and/or port forwarding. Many routers/firewalls will not permit traffic from internal hosts to public IPs it's translating like that (e.g., Cisco's rule that traffic cannot enter and exit on the same interface.)
To remedy this some firewalls (like those made by Cisco) can be configured to translate DNS requests for NAT-mapped IPs. Another remedy is to run an internal DNS server, that answers queries for your domain[s] and returns internal IPs, and looks-up the rest of the queries from the DNS root.
If you can give some more details about your local network environment, I may be able to give you a better answer.
