How can i access my web page from remote? - language-agnostic

I have created a web page and have put it under Inetpub/wwwroot/Test.
Now I am trying to access it from remote but unable to access it.
What are possible causes and how can i resolve them ?
Please someone help me out.

I think Windows firewall blocks accessing your IIS server by default. Try turning that off...

Deployed SSRS not recognizing current user

This issue seems to be localized to my computer because others do not experience the same issue.
When developing in SSRS &UserID displays correctly but after Deploying to the ReportServer &UserID is reading as NULL
I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this. Because it is not happening to other users I am led to believe it has something to do with my Windows Login but really don't know where to start. All suggestions welcome
I found a Windows Credential here: Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Credential Manager
For my admin account. I'm not sure how the machine was determining when to apply those credentials or not, but by removing it I solved my issue.

Localhost not loading in any browser

I have asked a similar question before here I sort of fixed it but im still facing a similar issue. Every time I try to load localhost, port 8095, I receive this error message in Google Chrome:
Google Chrome's connection attempt to localhost was rejected. The
website may be down, or your network may not be properly configured.
If there is a way to fix it, please tell me,
If not, please could someone inform me how to reset IIS to its original settings. Or if I can reset Windows Features so I can re-install ISS from scratch.
My website uses ASP with a connection to a SQL Server database (2012). Basic HTML pages also don't load under the URL, localhost:8095/
The servers were stopped because 2 services within administrative tools had stopped. World Wide Web Publishing Service and Web Management Service

Apache server - show page while server is offline

Since my server is running off my personal laptop, it has quite a lot of down time. Is it possible to have a page that shows up when someone tries to access the site while the server is offline?
Yes, with another server. You can't show pages without server.
If your server is unreachable, then the user browser shows a default page that explains that your server is unreachable...
With an external service (external server) it is possible. A lot of ways to do it. Look for solutions about load balancing for example.
But only with apache on your laptop, I think it is impossible.
Try superuser.com, you'll certainly get more answers about your problem.

Windows Server 2012 IIS Issues

Let me first say I soley beleive IIS is usless because I have never gotten it to work ever, no matter what I do it never lets me access the website.
Before I start let me establish I have no choice but to use IIS in this instance and I really need this to work.
Let me also establish the following:
Yes I have tried turning it off and on again
There is 0 (NONE) firewall on this machine, and yes the server is entirely updated
My question is, whenever I try to create a website, for example the port im launching a server on is on port 3606.
I am attempting to have my website come up on port 3606, and direct me into a folder that is located at c:\mysqlservices
Now! Inside this folder is phpmyadmin source files, and in a desperate attempt to get this to work I have made the permissions to where EVERYONE, IUSR and IIS_USR all have full read write and nuking permisisons to this directory, its files, and all of its subdirectories.
Now, When I go to this address, for example, panel.archservers.com:3606,
All I get is the issue "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied."
Thank you in advance for the help, all I need is to get this IIS server to actually work, because as it is, I cannot do anything with this IIS server..
Thank you very much in advance
This link suggest to add "IIS_IUSRS" user, which is not the same as "IIS_USR".
I needed to install the PHP core, then reset my permissions back to just iis_usrs.
It worked great
you are entering a wrong context...give a correct context of your application it will open that page..
Ex:
www.example.com - Forbidden Error
www.example.com/ex.jsp - Displays the respected page
Also check proper permissions are supplied or not to the directories

Opening client side applications via a remote app

Ive done a fair amount of searching on this, but ive struggled to find the answer.
At present I have an access program that sits on a remote windows 2008 server and users can log into it through a remote app. In the local version of my program, users can hit a button and email through outlook, but obviously if your accessing it remotely it tries to open outlook remotely.
So here's the question: Is there any functionality that will allow me to open Outlook locally whilst using the remote app?
Ive read about scriptable virtual channels but i would like someone to confirm if this is possible (or call me a moron for even contemplating the idea).
Thanks in advance.
Split the database. Your client will then open Outlook locally.
Here is some info that might be helpful if you do not know how to split the database and what the benefits are: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/split-an-access-database-HA010342026.aspx
