Installation of the IIS server
Installing IIS 5.0 on Win XP Professional.
Open the Control Panel on your pc and run "Software"

In the list of components, you should see Internet Information Services (IIS). You have to be sure this is checked.Configuring individual components : Click the Details- button
Installing PWS on win 95/98/NT
Differences between PWS for NT Workstation and PWS for Win95/98 :
PWS for NT Workstation : "Full-featured site development or personal publishing on a corporate intranet" .PWS for Win95/98 : " Personal publishing on a low-volume corporate intranet".
For example : you don’t have an FTP service in the Win95/98 version of PWS. Both of these servers feature built-in ASP engines, but those engines only support ASP 2.0, while IIS 5.0 supports the newer ASP 3.0.
Download PWS
Run SETUP.EXE.
Choose Typical (Or try custom if you have preferences )
Reboot and the PWS installation is done!
To run PWS you need IE 4.01 or later. Make sure you have it installed before you start. IE 4.01 is free and can be downloaded from Microsoft (About 16MB).
If you don’t know the network name of your computer use this address in stead: http://127.0.0.1/ or try http://localhost/ . You should now get the PWS welcome page.
Let's check out our PWS or IIS. Open a texteditor, and past the below code in to it:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<B>Test PWS</B><BR>
The date now: <%=DATE%><BR>
</BODY>
</HTML>
The directory used by your PWS or IIS is : INETPUB/WWROOT/ and should be on your pc after installing PWS.
Make new directory in the existing path for example: INETPUB/WWROOT/www/
Save the textfile in it and name it index.asp.
Try accessing your website again http://127.0.0.1/www
The server opens the file we saved and the text “Test PWS “ and the “actual date” should now be displayed.
Try out some of the samples we have gathered on this site or try making your own ASP pages. If you don’t specify a page name in the URL, then the page named default.asp will show up.
