I'm sure you already know this, but just in case, make sure your sites
are registered with InterNIC (or whoever is handling it now) and that
your DNS addresses actually work. Or just use the IP address and avoid
all the hassle (for testing purposes only of course). Your hame page
needs to be named "default.htm" (not "index.html" like in Unix servers).
And of course the permissions and anonymous settings as someone else
suggested.
