url rewrites

[PJ6]

I'm looking at a web project that uses url rewrites configured in
System.WebServer. When deployed on the production box, it 'just works', but
running on localhost the configuration seems to be ignored. I have found
documentation for this feature, but there is no mention of its functional
requirements. Does anyone know what I need to do to get url rewrites working
locally on a developer's machine?

You're probably about URL Rewrite Module for IIS7
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/734/url-rewrite-module/

In this case you would need IIS7 and that module installed.

Yeah I saw something about that, but neither the production box nor my
machine has IIS7 installed - they're both IIS6.

Well, then it seems that it used an additional configuration on the
server like the wildcard mapping

Can you please tell us what do you have in System.WebServer?
