According to some old MSDN article is *should* be possible to install
ASP.Net 1.1 (32bit only), ASP.Net 2 (32bit) and ASP.Net 2 (64bit) on a 64bit
Win2k3 box and run either both 32bit frameworks on the server, or just the
64 bit one.

I want to run the 2x 32bit frameworks on various websites in IIS, but can't
get the 32bit framework to install on 64bit windows.

Any hints are most welcome as I don't want to have to trash this server and
put it back to 32bit.

Thanks in advance.
 
Don't worry. Have found out for myself that the 64bit framework includes the
32bit framework. aspnet_regiis -s w3svc/n/root also registers .net 2 with
the appropriate website.

Apart from configuring a separate application pool for the .Net 2 sites and
using a special 32biton64bit command there's not a lot else to do.

Phew!

Worst bit was trying to find out the w3svc/n/root part - n is a special
number, which you should be able to find by looking at the log file
directory. For the first website it's always 1, but after that is a huge
(apparently random) number.
