I came accross the following IIS4/5 Metabase setting:

AllowPathInfoForScriptMappings

It can be set at either the service or site level:

    W3SVC/
    W3SVC/1/

MS claims that this forces PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED to act according to
the CGI specification, however this setting seems to have made no difference
at all for me.  I am using the IIS5 on W2K Pro (not Server), so this may not
be an available option since this version of IIS is somewhat limited (though
MS does not mention this).

Has anyone else gotten this setting workding?  Does anyone know if there are
any caveats or additional settings I need to get this to work?
