Where can I get IIS 6 and can I install it on XP?

[cj]

I have IIS 5.1 on my pc now and it doesn't have all the options that 6
has in the manager app. I can't figure it out. I have figured out 6
now which is running on our server but I would like to have a local copy
as well to do some testing.

I dont think you can install IIS 6 on xp. You need Windows server 2003

If you are on XP Pro it is on the XP disc otherwise Home does support it
although there are sites that tell you how to run it.

Hi Cj,

For IIS, it is not a standalone component like IE or Desktop search. It is
coupled with the windows operating system(one of the windows components you
should install from add/remove programs). And for IIS6, it is available on
windows server 2003 rather than windows XP. XP Pro only provide IIS5 .
