Cannot get IIS to work

[slewis1972 0]

Hi,

 

I just installed IIS to host a ftp site at home. Basically, it is showing as

not started, and when I try and start it, in the Internet Service Manager

the message I get is "The service did not start etc etc ina timely fashion".

I have checked my network connections and in Control Panel/System/Hardware I

have about 10 references to netbeui, mostly dial in, and a couple dial out

ones. I try to delete these ( as could explain why my computer takes ages to

load), but all I get is that Windows nead these to start and so access is

denied.

 

Am I looking in the right palce ???

 

Input from you fine people please,

 

Scott
