This is strange. I did a lot of testing and could not access the development server from any of the computers on my local network. I was running the server on 0.0.0.0:8000. I could access it via localhost:8000 or 127.0.0.1:8000 but not using the machines actual IP address of 192.168.1.117:8000. Now I'm trying it again at home and it started working. My home network is set up exactly the same as my work. I think rebooting the Macbook and the VM must have fixed it. I guess I'll find out for sure tomorrow when I'm back at work.
Thanks Cliford for all your help and patience. It's greatly appreciated!

Just like you did when you typed: manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 (listen on port 8000 on all interfaces) manage.py runserver 192.168.1.117:8000 (listen only on port 8000 on the interface to which 192.168.1.117 is bound) > My ipconfig is; > Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: > > Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : mydomainhere.com > IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.117 > Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 > Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1 What does the equivalent for the machine from which you're trying to access this server when you run manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 look like? -- Regards, Clifford Ilkay Dinamis 1419-3266 Yonge St. Toronto, ON Canada M4N 3P6 <http://dinamis.com> +1 416-410-3326 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
