IIS using port other than 80 makes VS complain

S

Hi-

I needed to switch my IIS port to something other than 80 so that I could
get around my ISP's efforts to block port 80. Now, when I launch VS.net it
complains that it can't establish a connection with the server. Is this a
setting somewhere that will let me specify another port for it to use?

Sorry for the OT, but I figure this is the place where I have the best
chance of getting help.

Thanks,
Steve

Are you trying to develop using VS from ouside your local network?

If not, just leave port 80 open, and add another port to the IIS site.
If so, you could try editing the .webinfo file in the project folder to
reflect the proper port number.
Never tried it though.
