Solved: IIS5 and Windows 2000

Howdy OK, sorted that out. The problem lay in the permissions on the php.ini file, after the problem with Terminal Services putting the file in its own special place. I did a phpinfo(); and saw that the php.ini file path was in fact c:\winnt - then check the file permissions and added read rights for all authenticated users. That sorted the session path out and all the problems with it. :) Thanks for all the suggestions. postmaster@dostuff.net - maybe now you can try 4.06?
