I have a small webserver set up running Windows 8 Pro and IIS 8. One can access the site from the external domain easily enough, but accessing it internally becomes a chore given the fact that I want to have a rule set up to redirect thevgc.net
to www.thevgc.net
. My question is, how can I go about setting up some form of reverse proxy or internal DNS server to allow for other computers on the same LAN to access said web sever?

What happens when machines on the lan try to access the server? I'm not understanding enough about what isn't working. – Stephen Ostermiller Aug 07 '13 at 15:05

I can access the main site from the server's internal IP, but not from the domain I assigned to it. When I do, the browser loads indefinitely and then says that `"Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to thevgc.net"` – Cora Aug 07 '13 at 19:27

1Setup an internal DNS entry that points that domain name to the internal IP. – DanBig Aug 07 '13 at 19:42

How would I do that on Windows? I've only ever delved into that once, and that was on Ubuntu about a year-and-a-half ago. – Cora Aug 11 '13 at 19:39
