installing iis

[bookouri]

I have IIS installed on one of my compaq servers. I installed it from the NT option pack when i originally set up the server. I know this seems like a basic, anybody should be able to figure it out kind of question but I cant seem to find the answer. How can I tell what version of IIS is running? I assume its 3.0. If it is 3.0 how do i upgrade it to 4.0. Im still running NT 4.0 so I assume I cant install 5.0. I have a project coming up where I will need to start using IIS and I need to get it up and running.

thanks..

Hi,
create an asp page containing:

Response.Write Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_SOFTWARE")

When called this page will show the version of IIS that the server is running.
You are coorect that you can't install IIS5 onto NT4, it can only be installed onto the Windows 2000 family. To upgrade from 3 to 4 use the Option pack for NT 4 and install IIS 4 onto your machine.
