IIS8.5 returning Default Website with generic 403 error when working remote

$

Setup:

  • IIS 8.5, Windows 8.1 Feature installed locally
  • MS Visual Studio 2013 update 3
  • MCV 5.2
  • SQL server locally installed

When working on my projects on the corporate Domain via WiFi or LAN everything works correctly. When Working remotely via VPN or not I get a blank screen that redirects from a 403 Forbidden error.

Note: Default web site also gives the 403 error AND VPN doesn't have to be running

Chrome: "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 403 (Forbidden)" with no other information present.

IE: "This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that Internet Explorer was able to connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage." Also, a message about this website requiring me to log in.

There is no log for access denied I can find anywhere. Although I turn tracing on in IIS I get no Failed Request Tracing.

The only changes I made since it quit working are:

  • Updated from VS 2013 Update 2 to Update 3
  • Updated from ASP.NET Web API 2.0 to 2.2
  • Updated EntityFramework from 6.1 Beta to 6.1.1

I have a feeling I have been looking too close at this problem and am missing something obvious, but said proximity is obviously in the way.
