[thelist] Win 2K Pro vs Server

[Brian King]

I finally figured it out.  It was an MS F'up, (see MS Q238881).  There has
to be a file called Frontpg.ini in the WINNT dir.  I had the file but the
contents were not correct.  The contents need the following information.
I also had to load both the Client and server set of Frontpage server
extensions.  I didn't realize that there were two sets that needed to be
loaded when the server and the client were on the same machine.  Apparently
the systems views it as two separate  machines.
What a hassle.  Not bad though.  Only 8 hours wasted from install to a
working setup.

I have no experience with Interdev, but Frontpage extensions are very flaky.
I find it necessary to remove Frontpage extensions from the web site in
IIS, then reset all of the permissions on the folder, then reinstall the
FP extensions. Sometimes, resetting the permissions after the FP
extensions are reinstalled as above helps if the above does not.
I dont know why this works and I dont care to know...hopefully FP dies
soon. I can dream cant I?
