Is There a Way to Make Remote Calls to ASP.NET Development Web Server?

Question

I know that generally speaking, this cant be done, that is get another PC to call a site hosted under the ASP.NET DEvelopment Web Server remotely (generally

Answer 1

Basically i spent 5 hours making this work, and ultimately if you want a 5 min fix here goes:

1. Port forward incoming traffic to your local ip on your network
TCP Any -> 3127-3128
TCP Any -> 80-81
TCP Any -> 8080
TCP Any -> 8000
TCP Any -> 8888
to
192.1681.1.3 (the local ip of the machine running .NET Dev server.)

2. Download SPI Port Forward

3. Heres the tricky part - Setup 2 forwarding rules as follows:
Local port: 8080 Remote: localhost Remote port 8080
Local port: 8080 Remote: localhost Remote port: .NET Dev server port

Without that second rule the .NET dev server wont serve the page

4. now visit your public IP address at port 8080 -- and you got it
