try using Apache Server or IIS Server. Because All Websites are need Web Server. It is not a matter it is your local ip or from other ip.

Hi,if u develop a web application or web site,that machine also know as local system ,if u create installer for website and install in any machine that machine as local machine or server machine,yes u can run ,if that machine connect in a network and u try to access form another machine then client server operation.

R u run with coding or publish copy ?

Not really... You can do it, but it involves running IIS or similar in order for it to work - you can't just "run" your website as an application because it isn't one! It's a partial application that is executed on a page by page basis by the web server software.

Having said that, there are a couple of solutions which will let you do it: google[^] has some examples.

It's probably more trouble than it's worth though.
