IIS 5.1 Sites

Here are additional tips for creating sites in IIS 5.1.  These tips should help you out with the 5.1 version of IIS for Win XP Pro.  I appreciate all the contributions I have received to date on this topic!  Please see my original page regarding multiple sites in Win XP Pro version 5.1.

Below you will find an assortment of contributions that should help you with your work with Win XP Pro IIS 5.1.

Please take a look at my article about GZIP dynamic web page compression, 4X speed, 4X less bandwidth.

I came across your How To guide for enabling multiple web sites under XP Pro. I at the same time (almost) found a tool that does the same thing but without the hassle of running the scripts manually:
http://www.mindxpand.be/iisadmin/
A more recent link: http://www.firstserved.net/services/iisadmin.php  Bob.
This seems to work on my XP Laptop.

I have not tested this GUI, but it does look useful!

Hi

Thought perhaps you'd be interested in my bit of code called "iis_multiplex", available from http://h4ck3r.net/. It allows you to run many websites from WinXP Pro's IIS. It comes with simple instructions on how to set it up, and with the source code for those inclined to muck with/improve it.

I have not tried this ISAPI filter, but it is yet another possibility.  Bob, 1/28/2005

To initialize the second site:

"In addition, I would update your site to say that the key function that you need to perform on the adsutil.vbs script is the following:

adsutil.vbs COPY W3SVC/1 W3SVC/2

This will make a copy that contains all the meta data required for the site to work. Note, this function is not documented in adsutil.vbs HELP and it was only until I opened the code, I saw that this function was supported. Otherwise, it can be difficult to assemble all the components that are required to get a second site up."

So you can have multiple web sites but you can only run one at a time.  Believe me I've tried many things to start the two sites simultaneously, (of course without breaking my license agreement). So for me one site at a time is almost useless.  I can't delete the second IIS Virtual Server either.

To delete the second new site, at run prompt, type:
C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs delete W3SVC/2

Also possible sources of the Adsutil.vbs script.
Windows XP PRO + service packs
.NET Framework + service packs
Visual Studio.Net
Frontpage 2002 server extensions

Thanks Bryan!

I hope all these contributions help you on your quest!
Thanks,
Bob
