ASP on IIS6 (opposite question; was RE: [thelist] ASP.NET on IIS 5?)

So the tediousness of getting ASP working again had more to do with
your lockdown policy than any inherent problem with "re-enabling ASP"

As for permissions, you could have used this:

Default permissions and user rights for IIS 6.0

HTH

Cheers
