RE: WinNT 4.0/PWS vs Win2K/???

Hi

Just letting you know that although IIS doesn't come with win2k
professional (win2k server and above only) it does support it. However
for home test why can't you just use the built in personal web server
that is in win2k? It does everything I need for testing purposes.

Later,
Brett

Run IIS 5.0 Instead of PWS on Windows 2000 Professional
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q262/6/32.ASP

It has the same 10 concurrent connection limit as PWS.
