Steve TIA for the help!
This is a potential client who is buying a CF App and needs to install CF to run it. The client runs IIS 5 and win98... elsewhere on the intranet are Oracle, Access etc. I have never installed/administered IIS (tried once & got lost in all the pre & co-requsite fixes). So, I don't have a lot of experience with installing/administering either CF or IIS. However, I am not afraid to experiment or buy/read books manuals, etc. I do have trouble finding anything on MS sites... I don't know what to look for... If you could get me started in the right direction, I will greatly appreciate it. 1) What does the client have to do to give me access to the system(s) (win, IIS) so that I can do the CF install? 2) where do I go from there?
