asp_cdo thread: How to use a remote Web server that is running on another machine in order to develop an application


Message #1 by "O.Patanjali Sastry" <sastry_sa@y...> on Thu, 8 Mar 2001 11:47:53
Sir,

    I have to develop an application that has the email facility. I am 

using Visual Interdev to develop this application. I want to use the IIS 

which is running on our WINDOWS NT Server. I have created a new Project 

and specified the name of the NT Server(i.e the server name). But the 

system is asking for a password. I have tried my login & password as well 

as the administrator's login & password. But it did not work out.



 While developing an application using Visual Interdev is it mandatory 

that the Web server that is to be used should be running on our own 

system? Can't we use a Web server which is running on another machine for 

example the network server itself?



 Another point that I wanted to clarify was that does the Personal Web 

Server support CDONTS objects?



 Please help me in this regard. I shall be waiting to hear from you soon.



 regards

Had a similar problem, but it was across Win2K domains and I was trying to 

get to the exchange server.



Anyway, I fixed it in CDOEX by using:



Login: "domainName\Login"

Password: "password"





Hope this helps.

To connect to another machine for an application development, first of all

that machine must have IIS or PWS installed. And it is not mandatory that

the system you should use must have web server installed on it. So, Yes you

can use Web server of another machine to develop your Applications. But

still you are not getting connecting with the other machine. Plz send a

little more detail about your server and cllient machine and the User you

have created.



Yes you can use CDONTS with PWS. For that you must have CDONTS component.

That is still not enough for using CDONTS you must have SMTP service or

must be connected to Exchange server.
