I don't know if I'm describing this correctly, but what I want to do is add a user to my Windows Server 2003 Web Edition machine who can access the remote web interface when she goes to https://[server-name]:8098. I created a regular user account for her on the server, and she can log on with...

Hi, I'm running IIS 6.0 on a Windows Server 2003 Web Edition machine. I've got the default SMTP server running on it, but I'd like to add some services to it. Specifically, I'd like to add an email account so that I can receive emails (right now the SMTP service allows me to send emails but not...

Hi, I have an FTP service running through IIS 6.0 on my Windows Server 2003 Web Edition server in my office network. I finally got the FTP service to connect to remote computers, and file uploading and downloading seems to work. There's just one problem: once any file is uploaded, it's contents...

I'm not sure what you mean by "from an NTFS level" but I right-clicked on the ftp folder for my FTP site, clicked properties, and clicked the security tab. There were 4 user types listed (administrator, creator owner, system, and users). There were 8 types of control (full control, modify, read...

I just setup an FTP site in IIS 6.0 on my Windows Server 2003 Web Edition server, and I don't know where to go from here as far as connecting to it remotely. When going through the setup wizard, I set the IP address to all unassigned and the port to 21, chose "isolate users", set my path, and...

OK, well I'll tell you my problem: I'm trying to setup multiple websites using Windows Server 2003 Web Edition and IIS (6.0 I think). Appearantly, it won't let me run more than one website at the same time on the same port. It will let me assigned 80 to one website and 81 to another, and that's...

I'm trying to set up multiple website on one server, and I just learnt that each website must have its own unique port. When I log into my router to do port forwarding, I notice that port 79 is reserved for "finger" (whatever that is), port 80 is reserved for HTTP, and port 110 is reserved for...

Hi, I'm all set to go with my server to host websites. What I'd like to do, however, before I connect to the world is configure my system to the optimally security settings possible. I'm running Windows Server 2003. Are there any online guides/tutorials that go through this stuff in a...

But does Norton Personal Firewall 2003 do virus scanning and removal? I only ask this because the router we have to the office network is already acting as a firewall and we contracted what seemed to be a sasser virus on the server (it's the one that spontaneously causes the computer to give a 1...

Well, I did my research on this. It's Norton Client Security, right? I tried to find this all over the city where I live but came up short. Supposedly, I can buy it for around $85 which includes 1 liscence, but appearantly Symantec has pulled it off all shelves of virtually every retail venue...

I have Windows Server 2003 Web Edition and Norton Internet Security. I tried to install Norton on my machine but it said that it doesn't install on Server machines. What software can I get that will install on Windows Server 2003 Web Edition?

Can someone explain to me what a DMZ is? What do I need to know about it if I'm trying to setup a hosting service from within an office network?

Can comeone please explain to me what the exact definition of a firewall is? I have a vague idea of what it is, but something a little more precise would help. Specifically, in an office network, is it something that sits outside the router to the office network, on the router, between the...

Can anyone suggest any guides or books that I can use to guide me in developing a hosting service on Windows Server 2003 Web Edition? I just bought a new Athlon 3200+ with Windows Server 2003 and I want to use it to host multiple websites from within an office network. The OS has just been...

Oh, yeah, forgot to mention: OS = Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. Working within an office network.
