re:

can i run the sites "as is" on w2003 server on IIS 6

Short answer : yes.

If you installed IIS, all you need to do is enable ASP.

1. open the IIS Manager
2. scroll down to "Web Service Extensions" on the left-hand panel
3. select "Active Server Pages" on the right-hand panel
4. hit the "Allow" button

can i run the sites "as is" on w2003 server on IIS 6
with asp.net dll
....or because the programming style

i have this question
because some messages of IIS 6
alerts about "security risks" on classic "asp" pages

TIA

thanks Juan (gracias!)
but could i just rename all the pages
and then use AspNet.dll ???

 

[Juan T. Llibre]

Do you mean "rename all htm/html pages" or "rename all aspx pages" ?
In either case, just renaming the pages won't make them work auto-magically.

ASP and ASP.NET have different programming models.

ASP's programming is linear and uncompiled.
ASP.NET's programming is object-oriented and compiled.

Yes. IIS 6.0 is more secure than IIS 5.0.
