publishing a web

[Guest]

Hi,
I have a web app that I created in VStudio 2005. I want to publish it to a
server
on my network running xp pro / iis 5 with font page 2000 server extensions.
My question is: what version of server extensions should I have installed on
the xp pro machine? Also, will the publishing feature in vstudio create a
virtual directory for me? If so can someone give a general layout of
permissions to achieve the following:

publish a asp.net 2.0 web site from visual studio 2005 to a remote server
running iis 5.0 with FP 2000 server extensions. Should I create a virtual
directory ahead of time? Any help is much appreciated. If I need different
server extensions is there a place to download them with out buying Front
Page 2003?

Thank you

OK - I've answered some of my own questions. I downloaded fp2002 server
extensions and installed. Now when I publish I see that indead a virtual
directory was created for me in IIS. In fact, it seems that although I get no
output errors and the output message reads:
Publish: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 skipped
I find no files or dlls in the virtual directory that was created only a
bunch of vti folders and an empty bin folder. So again I am stumped. Can
someone advise me as to what I'm missing?

Thank you in advance.
