Basically then there is no real reason for Apache over IIS on win2k server?
I am the admin of the Webservers, but the overall network manager would like to keep it MS-centric just because all the rest is. With our leased line we aqquired 16 ips, so in the IIS config I would just use that IP and keep it port 80? (I will read the manual, I will read the manual, I will read the manual!) SSL is a must for a few of the 'sites' that will be getting ran. As for ASP *shudder* I personally don't plan on using it, tho I might experiment with asp.net but thats a by-the-by. I'm kinda trying to verify that using IIS with PHP isapi module is as secure as Apache? Heres a strange one tho jist on the side: I installed Apache2/PHP on my own machine (used for writing code etc) and copied the application to an apache location, and ran it, but... there is supposedly files missing according to apache, all is as on the other machine - files/code wise. One last item I need some advise with... is IIS able to handle LOTS of sites accross multiple servers? as we have lots of clients so in the future will possibly need a machine to load-balance etc and seperate database serving machines - databases primarily MsSQL/Access/MySQL. Btw, thanks Stuart, thats kinda making me feel easier about keeping it IIS. > -----Original Message----- > From: Stuart Dallas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 14 June 2002 10:52 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] SSL Support for PHP.... > > > On Friday, June 14, 2002, 9:13:59 AM, Brian McGarvie wrote: > > How does IIS fair against Apache with servring multiple > sites? each site will be like... http://customername.ourdomain.co.uk > > Both are capable of serving multiple sites without any issues > that I am aware > of. > > > Also - more an IIS/Apache Q, how do you configure the above > to work in both IIS and Apache? > > In IIS you set the host header for the site when you set the > IP for the site. > In Apache you use the NameVirtualHost directive.
