Right have a website internally using IIS, but getting to it requires
http://IPADDRESS//LaytonHelpBoxSQL/
Is there anyway to configure it so the IP says a name of my choosing. the server cant connect to the internet.

in IIS under the server can you just not create a new website and point it to the IP address?

I don't really understand what you mean?
You can get to it by going http://SERVERNAME//LaytonHelpBoxSQL/

but the server name is strange, just rather have it so we say if you have a call you need to log go to->
http://helpdesk/
instead of all that
http://SERVERNAME//LaytonHelpBoxSQL/

Change the server name to helpdesk and set the sql site as the default site would seem the laziest option

Well im sure you can just create a DNS entry to get around it.

edit the host header on a new web site and update the DNS server?
