Installing on NT
What different things do you need to do when installing on NT? I have already installed sockets.

..in a nutshell equating UNIX permissions to NT is a bitch.

Some new security features IIS4 (from IIS3) adds to NT solved that for me.

Figuring out the finer points of setting the access rights was sort of a drag but it still seems to have achieved the end result.

One other thing... not mess around with the snippets of ActivePerl (perl for win32m perl for IIS, etc) -- simply install the whole package.

Most everything else is pretty much a no-brainer -- "use IIS headers" in links.cfg, "os=NT", etc..

Hmm.. Since I have been fiddling with links so long now -- 1.0, 2.0betas, IIS3 to 4 and numerous mods and fixes to the scripts I am not sure I can cover it all from memory.

I am going to attempt to get beta 4 installed over the beta 3, perhaps I can outline what I had to do with that...
