Multiple Sites hosted on IIS6?

Hello,

I have a 2003 SBS server that I want to host a few sites off, sort of.
We had a Deerfield server setup previously, holding all three sites
that were pointed to the same external IP address. We NAT'd the
external to the internal IP and Deerfield resolved the specified http
address. I don't know IIS6 well enough to accomplish this. I've tried
by configuring to the best of my ability, but am falling short
somewhere.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Russ

"Setting Host Headers in IIS 6.0"

....although it might be best to confirm that in an SBS newsgroup as
apparently SBS is quite different to other server versions.

I see your query has been solved, however I just wanted to mention that
you're not alone in moving from Deerfield to IIS I was a stoic ORA
WebSite user starting with version 1.0 long long ago (and before that,
EMWACS), but a couple of years had no choice but to move from WebSite (at
that time under the VisNetic brand) to IIS as WS was too unstable under
Windows 2000, and now I'm on IIS6 too. If you have any more queries about
how to do things in IIS6 that you used to do under WebSite I might be able
to help out. I'm even still using the VB6 CGIs I wrote for WebSite under IIS
(needs a single .BAS file replacing to switch from Win-CGI mode to
Standard CGI, so it's pretty simple).

Thanks Dan. I'm not doing the coding but helping in the
implementation.
I appreciate it.
