I'm trying to configure a second website on my IIS. The first one is working well on port 80.
I don't need any DNS, so i'm accessing it with http://public_ip_address and that's it.
I created a new website, give it the port 8080, the folder path.
Locally it works when I try http://localhost:8080 but when from the outside I try http://public_ip_address:8080, nothing respond.
I enabled Anonymous Authentication, but still nothing.
What am I missing ?
Thx for your help !

Probably you forgot top allow the port on the Windows Server firewall. Add TCP port 8080 as allowed protocol. By default Windows Server 2008 doesn't allow connections to that port.
