Hi Far,
Glad you like the BugBase....
When you use the built-in webserver, it only allows requests from localhost. So, locally you should be able to access it like
http://far:3166/BugBase/ (which is the same as
http://localhost:3166/BugBase/) but not from another machine. This is by design in the built-in web server. It's meant for development purposes, not production purposes. To access the BugBase across the network, you'll need to add it as a site or virtual directory under IIS.
The ports are chosen randomly. To change that behavior, click your project in the Solution Explorer and look at the Properties panel. You'll see Use dynamic ports which defaults to True. Changing it to False allows you to set an explicit port number.
Hope this helps,
Imar
