I want to install the NT 4.0 Option pack to install the IIS web

my Windows NT workstation running SP6a work. I want this web server to
connect to a SQL Server which is running on this NT Workstation as
well.
Please clarify what are the steps I need to follow to get the web
server running on my NT 4.0 workstation to run ASP.
Not really an ASP database question, but you asked nice... :)
Install Option Pack 4, ignore the notice that you need SP3 to install
this. After installation, reinstall SP6a. This gets you *most* of
the ASP functionality of newer versions of the OS/IIS (you won't miss
anything) and allows a connection to SQL.
You will have the issues of running on a workstation OS, no more than
ten concurrent connections, etc. so you may want to upgrade to Server
2003 while you're at it. See the IIS group for more on the options.
