[thelist] Front Page Extensions for Apache Server runninginWin2K Environment

[David Waldrop]

That is great Ken... It took me a while, but I got Apache to recognize all
(approximately 8-10) of the domains that I host on this machine. How do I
get IIS to do the same thing. I really do not want to shut the websites down
until I am ready to make that happen (knowledge wise).

Thanks for your help,
David Waldrop

If you want to use FPSE on Windows, then IIS is probably your best bet (most
of the other FPSE versions are for various webservers on non-Windows
platforms).

Uninstall Apache. Install IIS from the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel ->
Windows Components. Then visit WindowsUpdate to get any patches you need for
IIS.

Note that IIS on desktop OSes (Windows NT Workstation, Windows 2000 Pro,
Windows XP Pro) have a limit of 10 concurrent HTTP connections. If you need
more (to host a production site), you're probably best off getting Windows
2003 Server Web Edition.

Cheers
Ken

: David,
: Is there any specific reason you're running Apache, instead of IIS?
: FrontPage Server Extensions are available for Apache, but I've heard
: that it's an ordeal to install and configure. The GUI in IIS is much
: more convenient and easier to manage. I would also raise the issue of
: support from Microsoft, should you need it... also consider fixes,
: patches, and new versions when they become available.
