IIS Express not reached from local network

You created a website, running in IIS Express, and you can't reach this website from outside your computer, i.e. from another device in your local network. This is because the service is not allowed to be called from outside, until you explicitely configure that.
Here is how to solve.



An interesting post in the blogs of IIS.net

shows this solution, that for me worked in Windows 7:

netsh http add urlacl url=http://vaidesg:8080/ user=everyone

where http://vaidesg:8080/ is your website.
