Hosting in iis with ipaddress name not machine name

Hello,

I'm having a problem with connection to the WCF Service from remote computer (locally all works great). My IIS 7.0 runs on virtual machine and I can access it with IP address along with port number. When I open link to the WCF service in Internet Explorer (http://IP_ADDRESS:PORT/PATH/Service.svc) the link that is shown there looks like this:

svcutil.exe http://MACINE_NAME/TestWCFService/Service1.svc?wsdl

I think that the problem is with link in wsdl file. The end of this file looks like this:

<wsdl:service name="Service">
- <wsdl:port name="WSHttpBinding_IService" binding="tns:WSHttpBinding_IService">
<soap12:address location="http://MACHINE_NAME/TestWCFService/Service.svc"; />
- <wsa10:EndpointReference>
<wsa10:Address>http://MACHINE_NAME/TestWCFService/Service.svc</wsa10:Address>
- <Identity xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2006/02/addressingidentity";>
<Dns>localhost</Dns>
</Identity>
</wsa10:EndpointReference>
</wsdl:port>
</wsdl:service>

where the MACHINE_NAME is correct machine name, but there has to be an IP address including port number to the server in format XXX.XX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX.

If I put this IP address in web.config file for endpoint like this

<endpoint address="http://XXX.XX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX/TestWCFService/Service.svc"; binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="IService">

and open this link in web browser there is an error

"No protocol binding matches the given address 'http://XXX.XX.XXX.XXX:XXXXX/TestWCFService/Service.svc'. Protocol bindings are configured at the Site level in IIS or WAS configuration"

I also found on this link http://forums.asp.net/p/1096811/1659596.aspx that I have to configure host header on web site. I also tried that but without result. I can't write my real IP address including port number in host name field.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
.
