I need a direct link to download Internet Information Services 6.0 because I don't have the disk for the remote server.

Are you sure you can? I thought IIS is part of the OS.

I don't think you can download it. You need to (re)install off of a Win2K3 disk

Yeah, I just verified that - it's not a seperate program. it is built right into the OS. What exactly is wrong that you think you need to (re)install IIS?

Well I it asks for the cd and well of course the guys didn't leave the cd in the dedicated server for us so I was jus wondering if there was a way to download it.

I just had a email sent to our provider to ask them to do it for us.

You have to buy Terminal Services CALs.

mmm your right your right well I had an email contacting the provider about the liscenses.

I installed ftp server on there but when I try to connect through ftp it will not connect through a browser, etc. do I have to have IIS on the server to do so?

If you are using the integrated FTP, yes, it runs through IIS.

If you use a third party FTP server, such as CuteFTP server or something like that, then no, you won't need IIS.

Check the permissions on the website you trying to view. This is normally c:\inetpub\wwwroot\

and in answer to this:

You will need the terminal services mode changed completely on the box from "remote administration" to "terminal services".

As the others have said, you will need to buy CAL's (client access licenses) for either each user or each device (depends on how you set up the licensing mode).

To get an additional connnection to a remote administration server:

Start menu -> cmd -> mstsc /console

That will connect you directly to the console session, thus allowing 3 sessions instead of the default 2 :)
