IIS 5.0 enable exec?

[hegris]

Can somebody help me!!
I cant figure out how to enable the "exec" command with
IIS 5.0

I want to run exec command within at SSI directive.SSI (server side includes are enabled and it is working with the other commands!).

Hi,

in the properties of the site, go to the Home Directory tab. Click the drop-down by Execute Permissions, and set it to 'Scripts and Executables'.

Cheers
Stuart

Thanks for reply Stuartc,
I have already done that, and I have set all the mappings on the configuration tab.
I have set the SSIEnableCmdDirective to 1 in registry.

I think there is more settings in the registry like
AllowSpecialCharsInShell, but that one is unsafe, so I wonder if there is another way to allow running the "exec" command?
