That error means that you made a request for a URL that ends with a / (hence
telling IIS to look up a default document to serve back), but you did not
have a file that matches the defined Default Document at that URL.

In other words, if you made a request to http://1.2.3.4/vdir/ and that vdir
defined Default.htm and default.asp as default documents, you did not have
default.htm nor default.asp at the physical directory corresponding to /vdir

This should reproduce regardless whether you are accessing the URL from home
or at work, so you have something else going on here. What you describe is
not possible with a single IIS website definition which includes both the
LAN and WAN IPs.

So, you either have two websites, one bound to LAN IP and the other to WAN
IP, or networking is wrong where you are somehow not accessing the same
machine when requesting the LAN or WAN IP. In either case, the problem has
nothing to do with permissions and everything to do with user
misconfiguration.

Hi,
The Anonymous access on the directory security is enabled.
Under IP Address and domain name restriction, currently it is setup for
By default, all computers will be : Granted access
Actual error message after switching off "Show friendly HTTP Error
Message", the error message is this :
Directory Listing Denied
The Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.
Let me know if i need to check any other security on web server.
