may be I was too "enthusiastic" about it ;)

k, you have one network card, one IP (1.1.1.1), dns entries for a.mycomp.com and b.mycomp.com pointing this ip and want to have virtual sites a.mycomp.com and b.mycomp.com on your IIS.

1. with management console create 2 websites for those virtual.
2. website Property dialog, tab "Web Site", group "Web Site Identification" for both sites has IP Address: (All Unassigned), TCP Port: 80
3. Now for Advanced... dialog, site a.mycomp.com, Multiple identities for this Web Site:
3.2 remove record with empty host header name
3.1 add new identity with IP: (All Unassigned), Port: 80 and host header name "a.mycomp.com"
4. the same procedure for b.mycomp.com

now one can access your sites _only_ with urls http://a.mycomp.com/... and http://b.mycomp.com/... (actually [http://]a.mycomp.com[:80][/...]). If you want to access them with bare ip-address or by "first name" you have to mention it: add

Identity (All Unassigned), 80, 1.1.1.1
and
Identity (All Unassigned), 80, a
Identity (All Unassigned), 80, b
respectively

// i suggested you have IIS on LAN-WAN gateway with two nics in the first answer, pardon me
