I have a test and a production Umbraco sites, both are load balanced environments with an IP address for the machine and one for the site. In IIS on the production box, the umbraco site is pointed to the site IP and it works fine. On the QA test environment, the site in IIS is point to "all unassigned" and it works. However, I want it to mimic production and when I change the site to use the site IP address like production, the site gets a 404 - requested resource is not found' error. The network properties are identical, other than the addresses. The IIS sites seem to be configured the same and I cannot find a reference for the IP in Umbraco, other than the distributed call section in the UmbracoSettings.config file, which is setup the same way in each environment.
It sounds like it might be an IIS or networking issue rather than Umbraco. Are you sure you're using the right IP etc? Does your IIS install have other sites or just that one, and how are they bound?

Hi Deron,
