Problems with activating IIS on Win2k3 R2 Standard Server?

[Guest Laphan]

Hi All

 

Authority who supplied us with a Win2k3 R2 Standard Server, don't appear to

have installed IIS as there is no inetpub folder in the C drive or IIS admin

in the Admin Tools section.

 

Would like to create an intranet based web app using IIS and say MSDE or

MySQL, but don't know if there any implications in activating IIS on the

server - does anybody have any experience or know of any probs in doing

this?

Hello,

 

you may just need to have the W2003 install CD if windows ask for it (it

will unless you have a local source folder)

Add/remove programs, windows components, select it and install - you

will need the CD.

 

If you don't already know this, then I suspect your server will be

compromised shortly as this is before BASIC 101 stuff. Locking down a

server and getting it running properly is not basic stuff for noobs.

 

Get professional help to work on this with you.
