Unable to connect to Azure staging web role but can RDP and run it

I have a Web Role currently loaded on staging. When I try and connect to it via the DNS name given ( .cloudapp.net ) I am unable to connect. If I RDP into the staging instance I can run the web site via IP locally but just not externally. Is there any reason this would be?

Update: I tried to connect with Fiddler running and got this message:

[Fiddler] Connection to cf4ef419bd7e45ba8b1e83bb9b27ed64.cloudapp.net failed. Exception Text: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond xx.xx.xx.xx:80

Is there a way to promote someone's comment to an answer? Oliver is right, browsing to https://cf4ef419bd7e45ba8b1e83bb9b27ed64.cloudapp.net (HTTPS) works, which means there is presumably only an HTTPS endpoint. Add an HTTP endpoint if you want HTTP to work too.

Craig, did you just recently provision the hosted service? If so, it can take a few minutes to a couple of hours for the DNS servers to pick up the new DNS name and subsequently to have it resolve on your end.
