Microsoft IIS (Internet Information Services) - a http server which is included with Windows XP and up. Click Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components button, and select "Internet Information Services (IIS)". (These instructions are for XP; YOSMV.)

NOTE: Actually getting your ASPX file working may be rather complicated.

WARNING: Running a web server on your personal machine opens up all sorts of security problems, make sure you have good firewall software and set things up so you can only access the server from your local machine! If you are a novice I do *not* recommend you do this!

Also, check with your internet service provider. Many have restrictions on hosting websites over residential connections

He can run it for himself, accessing it via "localhost", while firewalling it off and making it inaccessible to the rest of the net.

I don't know if you were expecting us to be able to view that, but we cannot. I suspect your computer firewall, router firewall, or DSL/Cable modem firewall is blocking it.

I can ping the address, but not load the page.

With just a quick glance, looking only at the comments in the code, your first page doesn't have a section of code to create an account, with all that it implies.

If you can do the programming, I'd suggest setting that section up. I can't help much with it beyond this. I'm still learning HTML code, and haven't yet touched .ASP.

OTRS is not an ASP or ASPX application. It's a Perl application, capable of working with plain old CGI if need be.

The OP's issue right now would be resolved by reading this section of the original application's documentation and applying the information from there.

Yea, definitely out of my league.

[Pedersen]

In that case, you are going to want to follow the directions they provide in this page, especially the area where they talk about "External SMTP Servers".

I finally have everything working. Thanks for all the help
