Why can I use localhost:port only?
I created a web service for testing.After creating it,I debugged it in VS2005, and I can access to my web service successfully using address like: http://localhost:2357/mywebservice/xxx.asm.
But,I changed "local host" to my IP address(172.16.220.54),it could't work. I have tried many times,but failed.
who can tell me why and how to fix it?
thx a lot!

If you're talking about the built-in web server, then yes: this development server listens to localhost only. It's meant to be used during development so to increase security it only listens to localhost.
To fix that, install IIS on your machine and use that as a web server.

what you mean is to publish my web service?
Before I created that web service,I had installed IIS5.1 on my computer.Also,I tried to right click the web service name(project name) in solution Explorer of VS2005,and I choose "Publish web site";after this ,it still could't work .
I am a beginer of web service.So,pls give me some advice.Maybe a step by step instruction of pubulishing web service is the best.
thx so much!

If you want people to access your web service from out side your machine, you'll need to run the site under IIS. The development web server that comes with Visual Studio is only meant for development purposes.
Take a look at the "getting started" section of Visual Web Developer on the MSDN site: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xasa2c3y.aspx
In addition to that, Google for "run web service asp.net iis" or "run web site asp.net iis"
Cheers,
Imar
