How to access Parallels guest network services in a shared network virtual machine running in Mac OSX?

Question

I have a Windows virtual machine running inside Parallels in my Mac OSX.

This virtual machine is setup to use shared network.

What I want is: How to access a IIS service running inside this virtual machine from other computers in the network?

Answer 1

In Parallels preferences, open the Network section and set up a forwarded port. You'll probably want to forward ports 80 and 443 to the VM's ports 80 and 443.
