Joe,
thanks for the reply. Like you I've copied my code from a Win2K
machine(no longer around), but I'm not using VSS (though I'll remember your
tip when time comes). When I load the .SLN file from the new server
(win2K3) I keep getting a dialog that complains it can't fnd the old web and
then gives the old server name like
http://oldserver/myweb... I've resorted
to manually changing the entry in the .SLN file to the new server and that
helps. Secondly I've discovered there seems to be a mass of permissions
needed both NTFS and IIS... I have to change the NTFS permissions and remove
the "readonly" permissions and then set the "WebSharing" on the folder for
full permissions... this may all be overkill but at least I got it working.
Is there a simpler or more precise way to do this? I hate killing flies
with a hammer... but when it's got to get done, a hammer will still work!
I look forward to your input!
thanks again!
