If you are running a small workgroup of computers, you may want to use a computer running Windows Vista as a Web server for ASP.NET development. You can do so by installing Internet Information Services (IIS).By default, IIS 7.0 is not installed on Windows Vista® Business or Windows Vista® Ultimate.It provides for basic Web server functionality and includes the WWW, FTP, NNTP, and SMTP services.If you want to install IIS server you need to have vista business or ultimate editions.
You can install IIS using the following steps
Click Start—>Click Control Panel
Now Click Programs
Click Programs and Features
Select Windows features on or off from the left column
In the Windows Features dialog box, click Internet Information Services and then click OK.
Installation is in progress

How do I use the script, better, where should I type these lines??? and run….
the complete script is singe command copy and paste in to command prompt to start the installation
Hey I tried to copy and paste the script, but that didn’t work, so I had to manually type the whole thing out and check for misspellings. Final, no error messages appeared, when I hit enter, I’m back to C:\Users\Admin>
So I checked http://localhost and I still get nothing?
I went back to IIS and checked all the boxes from the selection and I still get nothing. I’m stuck.
Hats off man!!!
