    Hi, I have a Windows 7 guest OS with IIS 7 running. I'm trying to get access to it from my OS X, but having no luck. I have the preference set to Shared Networking, which I've read elsewhere was the key to this, but does not help for me.

    Has anyone done this successfully? Any other tips about using Visual Studio with Parallels and Windows 7 would be appreciated as well :)

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    1) What IP you are using to connect to Windows7? If you don't know, start the cmd.exe and execute in it ipconfig
    It should be something like 10.211.55.3

    2) Whether connecting from the same Windows using ip-address 127.0.0.1 works?

    If all these don't help, try to disable firewall in Windows7

    Oh gosh, I guess it was the firewall. I turned it off for home or private networks and I'm now able to connect. Thanks!
