Saying this, we have a client who used to use IIS - they thought they
had all of the back-doors bolted... Then one of the Code Red variants
came along and strolled straight through - they now use WSP

WSP does this also, with HTML-SSI files

> - allow NT users to change their NT passwords

Ours is a pure web server... We don't have NT users on the machine, so
this isn't important to us

> - allow IIS to handle local print jobs received through a web
> browser (IIS 5 only)

Again, it's a pure web server, so no printer

> - allow direct interaction with databases through MSADC

How does CF interact with this?

> - provide a direct interface to MS Index Server

Since we don't use MS Index Server, this doesn't effect us...

> - manage IIS itself through a browser

Remote Admin - been in WSP for ages - not browser based, but it's still
remote
