Do you want to publish your site to the internet or are you wishing to simply browse via a domain name locally on your own computer ?

Publish in internet. Thank you!
You will need to register your domain name
Find a hosting provider that hosts asp and .net solutions
Then simply upload your content to your website and test.

This will not help me. I need to deploy it in my office server. I am using IIS 6.1 in Window Server 2008 R2. Thank you anyway.
I asked specifically if you wanted to host internally or publish to the internet, you indicated you want to publish to the internet.
Do you have a publicly accessible internet IP address ?
How is your current network configured ?
Does your network Admin have network acls / firewall rules in place to block / allow traffic ?
Simply saying you want to publish a .net site say nothing unless you can provide a picture of your current situation so a potential solution can be suggested.
If your site is already established and you simply want to test the site from your local test machine before putting it onto a production server, you can simply use host files to point dns to your local machine and browse the site.
You need to provide more detailed information to get an actual solution, I cannot determine the best path for you without knowing what your working environment is and what you are really trying to accomplish.

The scenerio is I have been given a server with Window Server 2008 R2 to install IIS and website. Thought it should work in any browser, still should be within our network. Here is what I did.
1. Installed the IIS
2. Deployed the Website and able to browse it
Question is how would I be able to use the website in Internet Explorer or Google Chrome? What setup I am missing?
Thank you!
