Thank you very much for your help > > Steve Sure, shouldn't be an issue. IIS 5 should be installed by default on port 80. All you need to do is install apache on another unused port on that server, say something like 100, or even 81. Then you can access either webserver via the url line, thusly... http://localhost - gets you IIS server (also http://localhost:80 - note the port number on the end of the url) http://localhost:81 - gets you Apache server on port 81 As to installing on Win2K/IIS5... I've done this once without difficulty (only time I tried it), and this was instaling PHP4 with the same instructions for WinNT and IIS4. The differences between NT4 & 2000, and between IIS4 & 5 are negligible in terms of installing php4. Try the WinNT instructions and see where that takes you. -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
