Hi

Just started my new job and have inherited a project from the person I replaced which involved the dynamic generation of Internet Settings Files (.ins) for our clients.

Ideally what I want to achieve is clients logon on to our company portal and view their account details and also their email accounts they have for their domain. Here they can click a link which downloads the ins file for the specific account.

Most of the settings values would be retrived via asp from our clients database such as name, password etc and pop3 and smtp settings.

Having just started the project and not having much experience which ins generation could someone please direct me to any online resources which provide practical examples of Internet Settings File generation via asp.

I have found some information direct from Microsoft but its seems to be only suited for Outlook Express instead of Outlook 2003.

Microsoft Resources

Would I have to use asp to generate a registry file to apply settings to Outlook 2003 directly instead of an .ins file?

It would be great if some one can point me in the right direction. Thanks
 
There are some system admin guys over in the VBScript forum that might be able to help with the .INS file thingy.
