Use port forwarding for the other server.  If yours is running on port 80,
though, your roommate's IIS will need to be forwarded from a different port
(say, port 81).  The URL for your server's homepage will be
http://www.yourdomain.com, while his will be http://www.yourdomain.com:81
(or whatever port you decide to use).

If the idea of tacking on ":81" to the URL isn't too appealing, you can set
up Apache on your server to have http://www.roommates-domain.com go to a
redirect page to http://www.yourdomain.com:81.  In this case, the IP
addresses associated with www.yourdomain.com and www.roommates-domain.com
need to be the same.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
