Visual interdev 6 and IIS5 problem

Hello,
I have just installed VS6.0 & IIS5 from Windows
2000 Professional.
I need to build ASP in Visual Interdev 6.0. I will be
working on my local machine. Interdev asks that you
specify your server before you can open a new file. When I type the name of my local webserver or localhost, it says "Unable to contact server" Or I cannot contact any other webserver on the local network.

Any help is greatly appreciated

I get the same message (Unable to contact server) only when my IIS is not running. And I also have IIS5 and Win2000.
Try running anything from IISSamples in your browser to see if your server is working or just restart your IIS.
Have you tried connecting to any other server besides your local? did you install the appropriate service pack?
sorry, i can't be more helpful. maybe someone else can help you.
 
Thank you for your response. I reinstalled Frontpage Server extentions and it is working now.

Thanks again.
