A few weeks ago their was a thread about this. I have a server with the same domain as my web address. It won't let me access my website from my server. Anyone know how to sort this, I am running SBS 2000.

Cheers in advance

TWAS me. I assume you're using an internal DNS server. If your company is abc.com and you try http://www.abc.com it goes and looks internally which is fair enough really. You need add a host called www in your DNS and give it the external IP address of your website.
