website will display using domain name but not by IP address

| Need help with this problem...
1. Go to http://www.teledec.com (website comes up without
any problem)
2. Do a ping www.teledec.com
(you will get this:
Reply from 209.242.27.194: bytes=32 time=20ms TTL=124...)
3. Go to http://209.242.27.194 (you get a 404-Page not
found error.
Can anybody tell me what is going on here????
How can the website come up by it's FQDN, but not by it's
IP address. This is the ONLY website running on this IP
address, although the server has 10+ websites running on 6
IP addresses off 1 network card.
Things were fine for a long time. Something broke last
month that caused this situation. Can't find anything in
IIS/Win2k configuration that could have been changed.
Server: Windows 2000 Server / IIS 5.0 (fully patched)
Any help would be very appreciated.
Regards,
Saunak

| Hi,
The IP address returns this:
No web site is configured at this address.
Which means that the website is configured by host header AND IP address, in
order to make it answer to the IP address as well, you can either add the IP
as a host header, or remove host headers all together

| I'm not getting a 404-Page not found.
I get "No web site is configured at this address."
which means that...hmm...no website is configured at that address. So, you
must be using host headers, and IIS doesn't know what website is responsible
for the IP.

| Hello,
Sorry for my other reply, wasn't really helpful for solving the problem. I
found a KB Article that might help you with this:
"Error Message: "No Web Site Is Configured At This Address" When Using Host
Headers"

| And the reason why I'm not getting a 404-Page not found, is because i have
disabled "Show friendly HTTP Error messages". Please, always when you have a
problem with IIS, do this. It will give you much more information. To do
this:
In Internet Explorer, click Tools->Internet Options
Click on the Advanced tab
Remove the check box infront of "Show Friendly HTTP error messages"
When will i learn to write a complete post before sending?!

| Thank you very much for the reply.
Once I inserted the IP address as a host header, the
website came up when queried by IP address.
One thing though - I am not sure that the site will come
up by IP address if I remove ALL the host headers...
