Noted. The IIS lockdown tool has given me a few headaches in the past. I'm
going to give some serious thought to using Apache this time around... Just
got to weigh up the pros/cons.

Well, I don't need it setup as a domain controller so that shouldn't be an
issue (and might be using Apache instead). Just out of curiousity, what were
the problems you ran into?

Well, I'll be running both MySQL and MSSQL2K on the same box... Hopefully I
don't run into any problems there (haven't in the past).
