IIS - need to get up and running help

[Guest]

I'm not entirely sure this is the area for a question like this but there
wasn't a clear cut IIS newsgroup area. Anyways, if anyone can help it would
be appreciated . I just installed IIS that came on the XP Pro disc and am
trying to get it working, when I try to open http://localhost/localstart.asp
I get a 500 Internal server error and I'm not sure why. I can't seem to find
anything within the knowledge base of Microsoft's site to help. I'm not sure
what else I should post to help so if there are questions that I can answer
to help further resolve this glitch, please feel free to ask.

You might want to try this on the windowsxp.network_web newsgroup and
windowsxp.security_admin.

It's possible the problem is your firewall but it also could be some
security permission as well.
