Explain the configuration of the Web server under win2003

Web server refers to a program that resides on a certain type of computer on the Internet. When a web browser (client) connects to the server and requests a file, the server processes the request and sends the file to the browser. The accompanying information tells the browser how to view the file (ie file type). Today Xiaobian found that many differences with Windows 2000 Server were found during the configuration of the Web server. In order to avoid detours, the following should be briefly summarized as follows:

Internet Information Services (IIS) in Windows Server 2003 is upgraded to IIS 6.0, which is more secure. By default, Windows Server 2003 does not have IIS 6.0 installed and is installed through the Control Panel. Here's how:

1. Go to “Control Panel”.

2. Double-click “Add or Remove Programs”.

3. Click “Add/Remove Windows Components”.

4. In the "Components" list box, double-click “Application Server”.

5. Double-click "Internet Information Services (IIS)”.

6. Select "World Wide Web Service" and "File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Service" from it.

7. Double-click "World Wide Web Service" to select "Active Server Pages" and "World Wide Web Service".

After installing IIS, set up the web server. The specific method is:

1. In the "Start” menu, select “Administrative Tools & Rarr; Internet Information Services (IIS) Management & rdquo;.

2. Double-click “Local Computer" in "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager".

3. Right-click on “Website” and select ““New → Website” from the pop-up menu to open the “Website Creation Wizard”.

4. Fill in the "Website Description", "<;IP Address", "Port Number>, "Path" and “ Site Access Rights" Finally, the default document (Index.asp, Index.htm) should be set for easy access.

The above settings are basically the same as the windows 2000 Server website settings, but the web service is only applicable to static content at this time, that is, the static page can be browsed normally, and the commonly used Active Server Pages (ASP) function is not enabled. Therefore, you should also select Allow “Active Server Pages" in "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager" Web Service Extensions".

In addition, it should also be noted that if the partition of the Web service home directory is NTFS format, and the ASP web page has a write operation (such as using the news background management function), you should pay attention to setting the write and modify permissions.
