If you PC is on a domain the you need to add your PC's name/network name and IP in the hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc of the other PC. Also ensure that port 8080 is available on open on the remote PC. Ensure that the other PC can ping your PC or at least connect to it if ICMP packets are switch off. For multiple PC on the domain I suggest setup DNS and your IIS settings properly to expose your PC to everyone.
