[Web4lib] Help with IIS/Windows 2003 and Perl configuration

[Don Hamilton]

Hi all. This is a call of desperation. Those of you who know me will
appreciate the humor when I say that I've been tearing my hair out over
this for a week now.
 
Anyway, I have installed windows 2003 and IIs6, and all the latest
patches. I have installed the latest Activestate Perl. I have enable web
site extensions, set mime types, followed different sets of
instructions, browsed MS and AS sites 'til I'm blue in the face (and
bald!) and I STILL can't get a stinkin' "Hello World" to run... All I
get is that stupid old 404 (.2, I think) "The page cannot be found".
(/endrant. I feel better already).
 
The ActiveState site does not specifically mention Windows 2003 (that I
could see). Is that combination known to work?  Does anyone have an
idiot's guide to making it work? Please?
 
Thanks
 
don
