Installing Personal Web Server
(Page 1 of 3 )
James Shaw gives you the run-down on how to install Microsort's Personal Web Server on a Windows 95/98 SE/NT platform.
This section concerns installing Microsoft's Personal Web Server (PWS) 4.0 on Windows 98 SE, since that's the system I had available to install and test on. PWS is also available for Windows 95 and NT.
Note: If you are running Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional (NOT XP Home Edition) you should install IIS instead of PWS.
PWS is best described as a poor mans web server - it is not intended to be used in a production environment. However, it is perfect for use on your own computer, where it allows you to test your scripts before uploading to your production server or Internet Service Provider (ISP).
