We are running MediaWiki on Windows 2003 with IIS in a virtual machine (ESX 
Server).  The setup was a tad tricky.  I did not find the resource you 
indicated, but instead found several disparate resources, including the guide 
at MediaWiki itself and had to munge it all together.  I finally managed to get 
it going using our Windows domain logons even.

We are not heavy wiki users here (at least yet), but performance is no problem.

OK, I'm looking to break the good/fast/cheap rule.  Here's the deal:
 
"Good" in this case means "runs on Windows without feature loss".
 
The free Wiki from TWiki.org is written in Perl there's a ready-made Windows 
installer that includes both Perl and Apache.  They also have a ready-made VM 
that runs Debian Linux.
 
The ready-made TWiki VM version runs about 3x faster than the ready-made 
Windows version.  This can be seen both in browser response time and CPU 
loading during simple operations.
 
So I start googling for the answer to:  Is there another Wiki that runs on 
Windows, for free and fast?
 
I run into this web page:
http://www.yafla.com/dennisforbes/Many-Ways-to-Skin-a-Wiki-Hosting-a-Wiki-on-Windows/Many-Ways-to-Skin-a-Wiki-Hosting-a-Wiki-on-Windows.html
 
which describes how to host MediaWiki on, of all things, IIS.
 
Has anyone done that, and if so, do you like it?
 
thanks,
Carl
