It looks like perhaps you have the terms confused. Based on your question it sounds like you want to make your DNN install accessible to the outside world, not just yourself via Localhost?

If that is the case you need to configure an additional PortalAlias for the portal, you can do this as a Host/Superuser, from the admin/site settings page.

The alias will be the outside URL for your site. If you're hosting this locally it will likely be ###.###.###.###/dotnetnuke where ### represents the IP address of your system. If you already have DNS setup for a domain name pointing to the webserver you can use the domain name you have configured instead of the IP address. If you have DNN running in a virtual directory on the web server then you need to make sure that virtualdirectory is part of the alias.
