[thelist] IIS settings to run .asp pages

[Joel D Canfield]

If you're testing xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/myfile.asp that should be working.

HTML files working doesn't point to what's up with ASP files since HTML
isn't handled the way ASP is; you can open an HTML file without even having
the web server running. The fact that the pages work with your local server
is good; the error messages should help pinpoint what's different with their
setup.

No,   I have the IP address of the remote server and I am testing from my
machine like this  IPaddress/testfile.asp, and getting the error message.
But IPaddress/testfile.html   files are opening.

Not able to understand this but as .html pages are ok so may be this is not
the problem. Also all the .asp files are working perfectly in my PWS and in
another test site also. So codes are OK
