Maybe a little more information? I.E., how many websites will XP support on
a single machine being used for web development? Are you trying to set up a
web server? Vista is an Operating System, not a Web Design Program. Your
question has to make sense in the context.

You've asked several times and not received an answer that satisfies you.
Have you thought that maybe no one here knows the answer? This is a peer to
peer support newsgroup. Maybe you could try setting this up as an experiment
and contribute the knowledge learned back to this newsgroup so the next
person asking this question will get an answer.

Here's the long and short of it.

I had an MSDN subscrition I could not afford to keep but for that period of
time I had the opportunity to use Windows Server 2003 as my web development
platform. I could not afford to continue doing so because backup and virus
management and related tools are many hundreds of dollars each so I was
compelled to downsize to XP Pro.

As you know XP will only support one website located at Inetpub/wwwroot. If
you've done any web development you know this is a real problem when writing
code for a website that will then be deployed to a hosting service provider
which supports Windows Server 2003 (or earlier for this matter).

So the point is web designers and developers need more than one website on
their machines. Like up to 5 would be ideal I think for most of us.

Vista supports IIS7 which is very exciting to know but again, how many
websites will Vista allow to be run when using IIS7 on a single machine? Its
not IIS7 that will impose the limit it will be the OS. Nobody is going to
run a hosting business on a Vista machine that will only run a limited
number of websites but website designers and developers need support for
more than one website on a machine running Vista. So how many?

Clear as mud?

Yes, much better. I'll do some checking and get back to you. Thanks!

Where's Frank? He claims to know *everything* about Windows. Frank? Can
you help this person or can you only lie about and insult people? Here's
your chance to show everyone that you're not a troll and can actually
help someone.

Man, that would be any Web Server that's not already on the machine like
Apache not IIS, that is not in conflict on TCP port 80 HTTP with another Web
server already running.

You stop the Web server that's using IIS so that HTTP TCP port 80 is
released, and then you can use something like Apache that would be using
HTTP tcp 80, because they are two different Web servers with different
components..

Man, two or more Web servers can't be running on the machine at the same
time using tcp port 80. If one Web server is already active on the machine
using HTTP tcp port 80, then a second Web Server has to be configured to use
a tcp port other than tcp 80 for HTTP.

Man, you can run as many as you want as long as they all using a different
tcp ports for HTTP, and not the same version of a Web server, like two
IIS(s) or Apache(s) no matter what versions they, because of like
components, already existing on the machine.

IIS is IIS. So what makes you think that IIS7 would be so much different
than any of its previous processors in basic functionality?

And how helpful have you been?
How considerate have you been?
You get answers and seem to ignore them or just assume you are being
ignored.
Perhaps you should try and see what you are able to do.

This is a peer to peer support newsgroup.
This means there are people like you and me asking and answering
questions.
No one has to answer anything from anyone, anything posted is
voluntary at the posters time and expense.
Anything else you assume is probably wrong.

I suggest you go back and read your other replies particular lily
those referring to other sources of information.
Then, if necessary, post again.
But this time use another name since some have already blocked you
because you constant bashing.

Shouldn't you be peddling Ubuntu in Iran or Iraq? If you went to Iraq, you
could just walk down the street talking to street vendors.

I think you are confusing how many web "servers" with how many "websites" a
given instance of a web server will serve?

I have Apache and IIS running side-by-side on my XP Pro machine. I use
Apache to learn RoR. After twenty years of supporting this vendor I am
nearing my patience with the lies and deception from Microsoft that hurts
the little guy like me. So I'm hedging my bets in that regard and the
question is not how many web servers will run.

The question is how many websites does Vista support. Not to be insulting
but if you were an experienced web developer you would already understand
the question.
