Default ASP vs ASP.NET and IIS

Hi Guys & Gals,

I have "inherited" an SBS Win2000 server for development. IIS was originally installed, and maybe the .NET framework sometime after that.
I am developing a simple ASP solution for a client and cannot get the server side scripting to run. Is there some way to tell if ASP (not .NET) is correctly configured on the server?
Can I safely re-install IIS? If so, how?

cheers,
Mark

To try if your IIS is really working or not, you could write a simple page with an .asp extension with the following line of code:

<% response.write "hello world" %>

open this page in your browser. If hello world appears on your screen, your server side scripting is working just fine.

Yes, you can re-install IIS. (Copy the contents of the websites in the inetpub directory though)

good luck
