One of my jobs is webmaster in the sense of system support, not the common misconception of graphics designer. I recently started supporting IIS (a shift from Netscape web servers which were essentially problem free). As such I need tips and resources for Microsoft’s Internet Information Server IIS. As I find useful information I will use this page as an index for the IIS info. Please let me know if you know of an IIS tip or site I should add to this IIS resource page: Wayne Maples.
