[RESOLVED] Installed MediaWiki Successfully - but keep getting redirected to localhost

installed mediawiki, using IIS port 83, and it works fine on the actual localhost, however from remote browsers every access still tries to redirect me to "localhost", which obviously fails remotely.

1/2 solution is that i just directly reference http://myhost:83/index.php?title=Main_Page. But even in this case, styles, etc still redirect to localhost, which results in an unstyled page - just raw html. any ideas?

ok - got it - had to change LocalSettings.php which referred to localhost instead of myhost.

$wgServer in localsettings.php
