: How do I make a web site on my own PC, without DNS, available to others? I thought if I removed the host name from the site's binding, like the Default Web Site, just my machine name in
I thought if I removed the host name from the site's binding, like the Default Web Site, just my machine name in the URL would work, but I replaced the binding, and thought my machine name/IP address, plus the host name bound to the site, would work, but it doesn't. I would just like a colleague to have access for testing.
I am running IIS 8 on Windows 8. I have a hosts file entry with the URL host name pointing to localhost, like I always do for web sites on remote servers.

You either need an entry in the hosts file on your colleague's computer or a DNS record pointing to your computer. You can't do it based solely on the hosts file entry on your computer, because your colleague's computer doesn't (and can't) look at that file.
