Regarding FrontPage 2003 and IIS 5 (newbie webserver quest..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

Hi guys, my question is regarding about IIS and FrontPage.

I installed IIS on a Windows XP Professional machine that I have (file
server) and I am making a web page on another machine (laptop), all of this
in a small LAN enviromment (of course that the file server is connected to an
ADSL modem, and from there the page would be retrieved). My plan is to setup
a small static web site of photos taken from my camera (no ASP or database
thing, just some plain pages with a gallery).

In short of what I have:

I used the following for the web page creation:
Front Page 2003
*. Web component for Picture gallery (several galleries)

And this is the server:
Windows Xp Professional
*. IIS 5.1 with Front Page Extensions

The problem is:
Where do I find guidelines on how to setup the IIS with Front Page? or
How do I setup IIS to work with Front Page so that I can publish?

So that it will let me "publish" the pages". Because, the only thing I am
doing now is "copying" the pages over the server, using the Front Page wizard
(the blue copy buttons).

Hi Man,

Wish I had the answer's to your questions. I'm looking for answers also
about getting the IIS part of XP Pro going. If you've gotten answers please
pass 'em on. At least where to read about the set-up or something would be
nice.
