Users can't listen MP3 from our web site

Do you have a URL to look at? I suspect that the links are pointing to the
wrong location.

Kevin didn't address the port, he was referring to an incorrect link. Check
the link properties and see where it points.

We wan't to share MP3 courses and audio material on our web site.
Problem is users can't listen to the MP3 when they click on the mp3
link. They get an error message stating... Windows Media player
can't connect to the server. Server down or busy. Everthing else is
working just fine on this multiple webs server. We are behind a
firewall. Port 80 opened. What did I miss ?

TIA

an error message stating... Windows Media player can't connect to the
server. Server down or busy. Everthing else is working just fine on this
multiple webs server. We are behind a firewall. Port 80 opened. What did
I miss ?
