>I think you can install IIS on XP Pro but not on Home (unless you want to live dangerously):http://adamv.com/dev/articles/iis-on-xp-home/

I'm virtually illiterate when it comes to the non-programming aspects of computers. Please bear with me.

This is a work computer so I assume XP Pro. But how can I tell for sure? If I go to a DOS prompt and type VER I get

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

Any other way to find out if it's Home or Pro?



I'm also reasonably sure that IIS is installed and running on this computer. But, again, anything that would help verify is appreciated.



Assuming that IIS is running, can you give me some guidance (links, etc) on what needs to be done so that I can test the application from outside the Visual Studio environment?

Please bear in mind that I'm both an old person who doesn't learn very well anymore and that I'm brain-damaged from having been kicked in the head by my twin brother on the way down the birth canal. "Hurry up and get out of here, I'm next" (or words to that effect)



Thanks a bunch..........Rich
