what is your operational environment? i.e. what database? how many users and where are they - on the same LAN? is it a simple web project or has EJB?

Once you run that project on the server, users on your LAN can access the application with this URL:

http://[server name]:[port]/[application context]

server name is the ip address or full host name of the server

port is the port that the application server allows users to listen to. this depends on your configuration. if using Sun Java 9.0, the default port is 8080

application context of the application. right click on your web app, select properties, then choose run. you will see the context path.

Well,

The simplest thing to do is to ask your network administrator to provide that value. If you dont have a network admin, then follow these steps:

Note: I havent used win2k 03 - i use solaris. I do not trust win systems.

1. go to that server, open a dos prompt window. type ipconfig and click enter. this will give you the ip configuration. Note the value of the IP Address of the adapter that is connected to the network

You can access the application using the following:

http:\\[the ip address]:8084\WebProject1\

2. if that server is configured in a domain, right click on my computer icon on the desktop, choose properties, then select the network identification tab. Note the value of full computer name. It may take the form [computername].[domain suffix], e.g. cvs.example.com. you can access the application using

http:\\[full computer name]:8084\WebProject1\

3. if the server is in a work group, follow step 2, but this time take only the value of [computer name] e.g cvs

http:\\[computer name]:8084\WebProject1\

I hope this helps
