IIS on WIN XP Home?

[Stefan Richter]

Is it possible to install IIS on WIN XP Home?
If not, which other server could I use instead to be able to develop ASP.Net
stuff with Visual Studio.Net???

I tried to install IIS, and on the Visual Studio CD I found the following
instruction:
---------------
To install Internet Information Services on Windows XP
On the Start menu, choose Run.
In the Open dialog box, type appwiz.cpl, and then click OK to open the
Add/Remove Programs dialog box; you can also access this dialog box from the
Control Panel.
In the Add/Remove Programs dialog box, choose Add/Remove Windows Components
on the left side of the dialog box.
In the Windows Component Wizard, check Internet Information Services (IIS).
Choose Next to begin installing IIS.
---------------
Unfortunately, "IIS" doesn't seem to be available on my WIN XP Home System!
?
A work mate is using WIN XP Pro, and there you can find it in the Add/Remove
Programs dialog box.

Is there any way, to install any ASP.Net Server on WIN XP Home?

Thx,

Stefan

You should be able to get Cassini to work

Hello
Did you install Cassini?? Does .Net work now or not??? I have the same
problem and I really don't know what to do! So I will try to install
cassini but tell me if it's okay for you.

Thank You
