Allemagne doit mourir, les francais sont plus de bon.

Oh and it's neowin policy to speak english. :shiftyninja:

That was among the worst French I have ever seen...

On the IIS7 front: WTF's with "apache? mysql? php?" Do you even know WHAT IIS7 is and who develops it? If not, then please do not continue monitoring this thread.

Also, IIS never limited multiple connections -- only the XP version of IIS (err, Personal Web thing). When IIS6 was released, XP still had the limit but had access to the IIS6 MMC GUI. Did you install IIS7 on XP???

And do you know if IIS7 MMC GUI will be available for XP... or will the whole thing be?

Die Franzosen saugen. Sie haben keinen Anhaltspunkt ?ber die Gr??e des Bieres, der Maschinen und des eindringenden Polens.

Does anyone know how the languages were chosen?

Common usage?

I installed this in Vista RC2. There is a website with a faq linked to the image I posted. May be that will answer all your questions about admin-ing (sic) from a remote non-Vista machine.

Also, You can try it for yourself on a older build of Vista from th linked page. Microsoft is hosting Virtual servers to explore IIS7 from your machines. The older build is a little different but it should satisfy your curiosity about IIS7.

I am still exploring it, One thing I like with new IIS7 is that each folder can have its own config by dropping the xml config into the folder. The settings can be specified by a global config file too. But this local config feature is great for web hosters.

IIS7 Tracing feature is absolutely beautiful - very nice reports.

I just ported the entire NeoSmart test servers to IIS7 - it works quite well.

PHP 5, MySQL 5.1, Tomcat 5.5.17

It works really fast, and I just love the amount of detail and control. Finally going modular is a big help too.

PHP Info sheet: http://neosmart.ath.cx/

Sample JSP-ported-via-IIS: http://neosmart.ath.cx/jira/

vBulletin on PHP 5, MySQL 5, and IIS7: http://neosmart.ath.cx/vb/

404 page: http://neosmart.ath.cx/me.php

(Guide on piping JSP files via TomCat to IIS: http://neosmart.net/blog/archives/229)

Modularization made it a LOT faster, and it even has dynamic content compression - not just static.

I can tell with the vB demo, it's a hell of a lot faster than it ever was on Windows Server 2003.

There is no and never will be IIS 7 for Windows XP nor Windows Server 2003.

The IIS 7 management center and modular parts also will not be ported to Windows XP/2003.

To benefit from these new features you must upgrade to Vista or Longhorn Server.

:D

Offtopic: You EasyBCD application is great, but it doesn't look good in High DPI mode (mine is set to 120DPI and resolution of around 1400 Horizontal pixels which makes everything look very sharp)

I just setup IIS 7 and everything works great so far. No more 2 connection limits like in XP.post-89300-1160789494.png

I couldn't get VS2005 web projects to work on it. If I set up a site and pointed it to my root folder, IIS7 runs all fine and dandy but I can't load the site using the URL or file system because there's no more FP server extensions.

If someone know how to get it working, please let us know.

You don't need frontpage extensions for VS2005 web projects -- although it is still supported.

Second you don't even need IIS to run VS2005 web projects. It has a built-in webserver for debugging.

If you need to use IIS for debugging, then VS2005 will create the required metabase entries.

Maybe VS2005 isn't able to change IIS7 metabase entries (I am guessing).

There is a backward compatible mode in IIS7 for legacy apps. Try if that helps.

I will install VS2005 on my Vista box and try it out tomorrow and post if I find anything.

      Hello, Were you using a product or service from one of the companies affected by the Klue data breach?  See https://klue.com/blog/an-update-on-recent-klue-security-incident for the company's public statement.  That blog post does not list affected customer. From looking around at reports, I created this list: Gong HackerOne Huntress Insurity Jamf LastPass OneTrust Recorded Future ReliaQuest Salesforce Snyk Sprout Social Tanium It is likely there are other companies affected as well.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times
