Subject: [thelist] Enabling podcast on IIS?
> Hello all,
> One of the faculty members here wants to post a podcast for her students
> to access, and I'm running into a problem with it. She's uploaded an .m4b
> file of the podcast to her site, created the link to the file on her site,
> and everything seems like it's valid. The problem is that the server is
> returning a 404 error when anyone tries to access the .m4b file.
> It seems like the server is refusing to serve the file, presumably
> because it doesn't know what an .m4b file is? If I change the file
> extension to .htm or .zip, the server happily serves the file (of course,
> by that point it's gibberish).
> The server is Windows Server 2003 (so IIS 6, I think?) with all service
> packs and whatnot applied. The .m4b file itself is valid. I thought I
> remembered how to make IIS recognize a file extension, but apparently I've
> forgotten. Any suggestions? Do I need some 3rd party software to
> accomplish this? I'm going to suggest she provide a .zip archive of the
> .m4b file in the meantime, but I'm hoping to allow the students to access
> the .m4b file directly.

> Thanks,
