    I have an application running on an intranet currently on ii5.
    I am planning to update our iis to ii6. What changes do I need to make on my asp application to get it running on ii6? I am using server 2003. This application was built in basic ASP environment and NOT ASP.NET environment.

    IIS 6 supports the classic ASP. If you just want to run your classic ASP web site on IIS 6, then you don't have to do anything.

    ASP should run fine - one thing that I remember you need to do is enable the Parent Paths if you are ever including like "../" in IIS 6. Otherwise it all ran fine for me when we went from IIS5 to 6 :)

    Sounds like it will be a bit of a trial and error. You may want to try it out on ii6 first before making it live.
