Solution 1

You have to change the 'localhost' to the ip address of your machine. e.g.

http://ip_address_of_your_machine/myapp/login.aspx

Solution 2

For that you have to host your web app on your networks's IIS server.Which is the server where anyone can access from any machine.After that you'll have an IP address for your app instead of localhot. By using that address, you can access it from any machine in your network.

UPDATE

Nope, It won't work. You must have a domain enabled server which anyone can access within your network. In other words you have to promote one of your machine as a domain enabled server (win 2008/2012). After that host your app on IIS of that server and then access it by using that machine's IP address.
