Configure Web Service Extensions
In order to take a more proactive stance against malicious users and attackers, Internet Information Services (IIS) is not installed on members of the Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003 family by default. Furthermore, when you initially install IIS, it is installed in a highly secure mode. By default, IIS serves only static content — features such as ASP, ASP.NET, server-side includes, WebDAV publishing, and FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions from Microsoft do not work unless they are specifically enabled. You can configure these features, also called Web service extensions, through the Web Service Extensions node in IIS Manager.
