(this follows my post on april 28th)
are you still around BOBBY ARMSTRONG?

I have installed the IIS and only left out a couple of
features, nothing that seemed to be what I need anyways.

website from my hard-drive

Ok, You will need you XP Pro cd, out the cd into you computer then when the
autoplay file comes up click on "Install optional Windows components" then
put a check in the box by "Internet Information Services (IIS)", Then click
next

Tell us when you get that far or probs!!

AFTER you install the IIS you will need to go to the Windows Update site
there should br 2 new updates

I know that in xp we can have remote access to our PCs
and that we can share our screens for remote assistance,
I have been playing around and I would like to make a
website from my computer. (no paying for domain or
webspace ect. and the free stuff can be too
restricting)

I would like to know if and how I can setup a website
from my hard-drive and share it with friends and
Fam.during the time im online (I have frontpage2002 and
other webdesign software and use a direct connection to
the net) using XP PRO

there are features in IIS that I think can setup what im
asking about. I just would not know how or where to
begin.

if you can link me to the appropriate info/resource I
would be happy to let ya know how it goes or went.

Thanks a million for your support guys. signed;

The microsoft.public.inetserver.iis NG might yield more information about
setting up a website. Also, I would suggest posting to your original thread
instead of starting a new one - with between 500-1000 messages a day, it can
be quite difficult to track down original posts.
