All I can tell you is that the CF 5 installer doesn't recognize IIS 6, which shouldn't be too surprising. > We pretty much need to change the operating system even if it is > overkill because the development server is supposed to be an exact > duplicate of production.

In that case, I'd recommend that you use Standard or Web Edition for both, rather than Enterprise.

I strongly suspect that these problems have nothing to do with the version of Windows Server 2003 you're running, and everything to do with how each server is configured. In my experience so far, there has been no difference between any of these versions with regard to running CF applications with IIS 6.
