I'd recommend Apache on windows, IIS seems like it's not very widely
used or very well supported.

I have to agree with Matt on this. I don't personally know of anyone
that runs that kind of volume in an IIS/PHP environment specifically
because they were also not confident with this approach - they all went
the Apache route; the modular structure was the biggest feature point.
Most people I know also believe that running ASP and PHP side-by-side is
not a nice approach.
In one project I assisted with similar to your planned sectional
migration, we installed Apache and configured it to run on port 81.
After each section was completed, we'd simply point the original IIS/ASP
pages to the new Apache/PHP ones on port 81. Once the migration was
complete, we shut down IIS, configured Apache to run on port 80 and
fired it up and tested for some time to ensure functionality. The only
issues we had were some minor bugs in the redone code which were
corrected fairly quickly. Since then there's been no issues. That
particular setup was getting ~150k hits a day.
Personally, amongst my machines, I've got one box running Win2k Server
that's been running Apache2/MySQL/PHP5 for some time with not so much as
a hiccup. Cheers.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] any fairly large production sites on
IIS/PHP out there?
i am trying to switch our application over to PHP (currently ASP).
unfortunately, due to the complexity of both the code and the
site setup (hundreds of sites using the same code) it needs
to be a sectional replacement. given that and the lack of in
house support for linux/unix, the only realistic option is to
run PHP and ASP side by side on the same windows box.
recent testing on windows IIS/PHP has not instilled me with a
lot of confidence, seeing it use tons more resources than i
would expect and crashing periodically.
are there any fairly large sites out there using PHP on IIS?
(we get ~500k hits/day, on reasonably complex pages, and are
set up with two load balanced web servers connecting to an
array of database servers.) i would love to get input from
anyone running a similarly sized or larger site on what they
do to accomodate PHP in windows. Zend? FastCGI? others?
thanks in advance,

Hi Fernando,
the printer_write() function writes directly to the printer and you do not
need to call printer_start_doc(), priner_start_page() etc. These functions
must be used if you are printing useing the printer_drap_text().
Here is two examples from the documentation:
<?php
$handle = printer_open();
printer_write($handle, "Text to print");
printer_close($handle);
?>
<?php
$handle = printer_open();
printer_start_doc($handle, "My Document");
printer_start_page($handle);
$font = printer_create_font("Arial", 72, 48, 400, false, false, false,
0);
printer_select_font($handle, $font);
printer_draw_text($handle, "test", 10, 10);
printer_delete_font($font);
printer_end_page($handle);
printer_end_doc($handle);
printer_close($handle);
?>

Hello,
on 11/17/2005 02:42 PM Alf Stockton said the following:
In a PHP 5.0 program running under Windows 2000 with Apache 2 I need to
retrieve either the client machine name or the client machine IP.
Is this possible ?
Just enable Windows NTLM authentication in the PHP pages and use PHP
call GetEnv("LOGON_USER"); .

I Think the corret answer to this question is $REMOTE_ADDR or
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']. This will return the IP address of the client
that connects.

Right, for some reason I read he wanted the Windows client user name.

How exactly would you enable Windows NTLM Authentication in PHP pages?
