    • Just got a new Dell with Vista Home Premium loaded as the OS. When I tried to access IIS, there is no inetsrv.dll as there was in Windows XP and the C:\Windows\System32\Inetsrv folder that supposedly holds all the inet shit (per Google searches) is empty. Then when I went into services to see if the WWW service was available, none of the services associated with (FTP service, SMTP service, and WWW publisher) are even listed.

    WTF? Does Vista not even ship with any web capability? I have some local (on disk) ASP web pages I use to generate SQL dumps for me to update our BP recruiting databases...if I can't run these pages I can't update our databases.

    reboot your cable modem. I intitially thought the same as you, but once I rebooted my modem, there was nothing else to do.

    How is rebooting my cable modem going to load files into the C:\Windows\System32\Inetsrv folder?

    After Googling some more, I think I found my answer. This page says WWW Publishing Services is not installed, by default, and I have manually install it from the Vista CD.
