IIS?

IIS is going to be required only when publishing the project, right? It seems there is an ASP development server running on port 2997 that works for local development. I already have Apache2 running on port 80, so I was wondering if there would be any changes from default that I would have to make since I'll end up running IIS on another port.

I went ahead and installed IIS and it is serving requests on port 81. Just in case anyone is in my situation (having installed another web server already), here are a few steps you may have to follow:

Go into IIS administration (in Windows XP administrative tools) and right-click on default website and select properties. Set TCP port to the port you want IIS to serve on.
As a website I consulted on the net told me, if you get a "Failed to access IIS metabase." error when trying to view your service, you may have to repair/reinstall ASP. Fortunately this is easy.

Open a command line client
Browse to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.xxxxx
Run the command aspnet_regiis -i
