Web application on development server

[Bonj]

If I have a web application, it asks you at the start of the project for the
name of the server it is to be developed on. How can I build it on a
development server, then later transfer it to a production server? Is it as
simple as copying the files to the relevant c:\inetpub\wwwroot\[projectname]
directory, or is there some method of 'building the project on a particular
server'?

If IIS is running, it should put the files there automatically once you create the project. The sln file is placed where ever you usually place your projects

If IIS isn't running, open up services from administrative tools, find the World Wide Web Services tag and start it up.

When the project is complete, just create an site on your productionserver,
and copy the aspx, html,.. and the bin dirtectory to it.

you can also package your web application to be an exe file. you can install it after you create the host in your IIS

does this *need* to be done? It doesn't have to register any dlls or
anything does it?
