That's really my question. And do I need to make configurations before I get going or can I just take it "for a ride" immidiately? Also, where do I put the scripts, in cgi-bin as usal?
Thanks a bunch

I dont know if i got u correctly, do u wanna stop and start IIS using cgi-bin or on the server?
If u meant on the server u could simply tyoe this command in the cmd iisreset /restart ===> to restart The IIS iisreset /start ===> to start The IIS iisreset /stop ===> to stop The IIS
Actually I solved the issue with starting/stopping the IIS from the desktop. What I didn't know though was that its' possible to start/stop it from a script. Is it? But my main issue this far is where I shall put the scripts I create. Should they go in a cgi_bin or anywhere else, does IIS use a CGI at all, and is VB installed together with the server? Also does VB still use cgi.bas/cgi32.bas and is IIS the same as Windows Webserver and how do I get in contact with the server through my web browser? Do I just type "http://localhost/" in the address field?
Thanks a lot for your help though

Thanks for your link, but I still can't get a connection with the server. I've tried finding help in your link above, but I can't find anything that addresses my problem. I've tried entering
The server found an error when an application program was loaded in connection with your request. More information can be found in the event log. Ask the adminitrator for help.
When I look in the eventlog in the systemslog it says
The server couldn't load the application program /LM/W#SVC/1/ROOT. The error was Server process couldn't be started because the configured identity was faulty/defective Check username and password.
I have tried to check the usernames and passwords and as far as I can tell they seem fine. Besides I don't give a password when I call on the server, I never have. The ironic thing is I have been in contact with the server before, but this time I don't even get a login messagebox. I have tried to shut my firewall down, but I still get the same result. I have even tried to reinstall the server. I also thaught it might have something to do with the webbrowser, so I tried with IE and got the same results.
My Best Regards Mattis

Restoring configuration 0 (right click on Internet Information Services and it's there at the top). Removing IIS completely with the W2k-CD (by deselecting it under install additional components - in the swe ver.) Restarting the computer Reinstalling IIS together with Network Services Choosing update for localhost:80 in the browser
Voilą!
I don't know if all this would really be nessecary, but this is how I did it. If anyone knows how to make this list above shorter, then by all means make amendments to it. I believe both I and others browsing issues on this server would be greatful.

Happy holidays!

I found IWAM_*Computer name* in Users under Local Users and Groups under Computer Managing.
I also remember the computer got some problems with some logging in and asked me if I wanted to use what could have been just this address/account at later logging ins and I answered yes, which could have been sort of stupid I guess. Question is how you change this back to your own account. Should there even be a predefined account at all?
This is what the tab says:
General:
IWAM_*Computername*
Full Name: Account for start of IIS-Process Description: Ready account for Internet Information Services for starting applications outside of the process(There is that application again...).
The user cannot change password The password is never invalid
