Can IIS Do this?

Guest

Hi all,
I have a client who is running Windows XP Professional, with Apache 2.0.59
for Windows as a web server. Recently, they added an application to this
machine which requires IIS (5.1 on this machine), so I have set it up on port
8080 & it is working properly.

Apache is doing the authentication via a username/password box & once
logged in, the user is redirected to the IIS server running on port 8080.

My question is - can IIS be configured to only accept requests for data
once the user has been redirected from Apache server?

If so, would someone please point me to a resource or outline how I can do
this - days of research have revealed next to nothing.

Please reply to this post by email as I have great difficulty in finding
these posts when next I visit - thanks in advance - Terry

You might have better luck in an IIS group...
microsoft.public.inetserver.iis - as there shouldn't be anything WinXP
specific about your question, and more eyes will see the post that way.

Sorry, no email replies - ask in the group, see the answer in the group. :)

For ease in finding your posts, and for many other reasons, you should
consider using a newsreader client - (Outlook Express, Forte Agent,
Thunderbird, etc) rather than the clunky web interface to the newsgroups.
It's a lot easier to do nearly everything there, including searching, which
is always a good idea to do before you post, as well as mark messages to be
watched, and filter based on replies to your posts. The Microsoft public
news server is news.microsoft.com and you can subscribe to as many groups as
you like.

Hi again,
Many thanks for the reply - the web interface may be clunky, but it's
convenient - Outlook Express is justawful & with the exception of a couple of
Mac clients I have yet to find one newsgroup read I like. I'll try posting to
the suggested group.
