How to allow access to internal website in IIS7

I developed my first website for a simple internal application using Webmatrix in a Windows 2008 Server R2 machine. I'm able to open the site with a browser in the same machine as it is running, but cannot open it from any other machine in the network. I cannot open the default IIS7 website either.

The error is 401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.

This is what I have done so far, without any changes in the results:

  • Changed the port of my site to 80, and the default to 8080
  • Where it lists all the sites (so far just the default and mine), right-clicked on my site, selected Edit Permissions, selected the Security tab, and verified that Everyone has Allow permissions for everything
  • Where it lists all the sites (so far just the default and mine), right-clicked on my site, selected Edit Permissions, selected the Security tab, and added Domain Users with Read & execute, List folder contents and Read permissions.

BTW, this fellow seem to have the same problem and there were no answers: How to allow users from other computers to connect to my IIS7 website?
