Web Servers Frequently Asked QuestionsWhich Personal Web Server should be installed?
The Microsoft Personal Web Server (MS PWS)
should be used instead of the FrontPage Personal Web Server (FP PWS). This is because the
FP PWS sometimes has erratic behavior, and doesn't support CGI, ISAPI, IDC or ASP.
Two versions of the MS PWS are currently
available: MS PWS 2 (found on your FrontPage CD in the \PWS\ENU directory) and MS PWS 4.
Version 4 is highly recommended (found on the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack CD and on the
Windows 98 CD, and can be downloaded
from Microsoft.
Before installing the MS PWS 4, please see
the Microsoft Knowledge Base article When to Use FP PWS
Versus MPWS which includes a hyperlink to Why Are There Two
Versions of the Personal Web Server?
