There is PWS for Win98 (it's nearly the same as IIS for NT). But i can warn u using PWS or IIS for NT4 in a production environment. I had serious troubles with IIS4. IIS5 still seems to have improved stability. I don't know, who manages your IIS WebServer but the one must know what he does. The current heavily Spreading of virusses are a result of misconfiguration. Apache::ASP is only comparable to IIS-ASP with installed ActivePerl-PerlScript-Feature. It is not the same, cause the Apache::ASP-API has been enhanced with certain useful things. So don't expect anything from Aache::ASP to work with IIS-ASP or the other way round. PerlScript for IIS-ASP also wasn't very stable in older Versions and be still have some bugs. VBScript and JScript are still the first choice for doing IIS-ASP. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
