Hi Athanasios,
sadly enough due the continuous striving for "innovation" by
Microsoft I found recently to my dismay that those settings are no
more accurate for the new IIS on Windows 2000. I have to confess I'm
not a IIS/Windows expert and that after a couple of days of failures
I took the easy way to solve the problem: FreeBSD + Apache. Me being
ignorant about Apache as much as I am about IIS after a couple of
hours I had my system up and running.
If you are bound to Windows, but not to IIS, I suggest you to
download the Win version of Apache from www.apache.org. What you
learn today about Apache will help you for a lot of time (and
releases), while what you learn today about IIS could become useless
with Microsoft's next "innovative" release.
HTH
