Specific IP Address

[Ryan Hale]

Hi Everyone -

Well, I was finally able to resolve this issue last night with IIS.  It seems that you can set the site to a specific IP address, but IIS can still bind to all of the IPs.  For those of you that might be in a similar predicament, you can see the Microsoft article here...

Thank you all for your help!

Not to mention better security too.

Make sure to turn off FTP as well, as it uses IIS. If you want a secure
(SSH) replacement, I can recommend one.
