Hosting WCF service library in IIS 7

In My Computer A (Running XP)

Step 1) I created a WCF service library and coded it (On F5 it runs fine the endpoint generated is http://localshost:8732/Design_Time_Addresses/CustomService/Service1/

Step 2) I added a Asp.Net (TestWebSite) website to it and then added service reference to above file (On f5 the service is runnning so is the client ,everything is proper)

In My Computer B (Running Win7)

Step 1) I installed IIS 7, as a result a default website is created at port 80

Step 2) I added my TestWebSite at port 81 to IIS and i can view my site in the browser

Now how can I access my WCF service on IIS 7?

Assuming that your Computer A can talk to Computer B. That is they are in the same domain. And assuming that you want to create a service reference to the site on computer A from computer B.

You can access your service by:

  http://hostname:8732/Design_Time_Addresses/CustomService/Service1/

Here hostname is the name of the machine in your case Computer A. If you wan to find your hostname you can go to command line and type hostname and press enter. This should work. If i got what you are trying to achive.
