IT is not going to give me IIS for a test server, which currently uses Peer Web Server.

Anyone know if the fp2002 extensions will load onto the Personal Web Server (for NT 4.0) ?

We have an in-house server, & our IT gurus say that upgrading our nt network to win2000 would be too expensive, at the moment.

FP system requirements state that fp2002 can be used on NT 4 and iis 4.

I want the new features, namely usage stats, without getting a whole new network.

I'm not getting something here - You have a "in-house server" now? Running IIS4?
Just install the 2002 extensions?????

But the fp2002 extensions won't load on my test server, which is Peer Web. So I was wondering if anyone has any "safe" suggestions, (Gil), for loading them on an NT test server, other than Peer Web.

so I can test them, before recommending them for the IIS 4 server, so that I don't inadvertantly shut down the whole network. There are hundreds of computers on it.

The only thing I can suggest is standing up a NT4 server with IIS4 - if that isn't possible, you'll have to stick with the 2000 extensions OR load the 2002 extensions on your existing NT4/IIS4 server.

I don't understand how a problem with a web server could "shut down the whole network", the web server would only make the web site not work, it wouldn't "shut down" the LAN.

robble: did you try installing from the fpse02_x86_ENG ?

OK, back to the original answer - No - FP2002 extension require IIS4 or higher.

Attitude? Not sure what you mean.

I DO understand your frustration at not getting the funds from the company to do things the right way - been there done that .

But, the answer didn't/wouldn't/won't change no matter how much you wish it to - You will still need IIS4 to do what you want - sorry, I really do wish there was a better answer, but...

BTW, setting up a NT4 box with IIS4 for you to test on would not cost much at all, maybe you can talk the IT gurus into that?
