Koen,

When I read through the Wt website, etc I misunderstood and thought Wt
apps could only be run as a FastCGI Apache App under Linux or as a
standalone server under Windows.  I'm not sure if it is me, or the
documentation but perhaps a standard IIS configuration could be
mentioned in the Introduction page?

Is there any documentation on setting up Wt with an IIS reverse proxy?

Thanks,
Craig

Absolutely, agreed.  I guess I didn't realize it was a true proxy
connector, I thought it was just forwarding the request.
