Description:
------------
For  IIS 4, the current manual says:
> If you want to use the CGI binary, do the following: 

> Under 'Home Directory', 'Virtual Directory',  or 'Directory', click on the 'Configuration' button, and  then enter the App Mappings tab. 

> Click Add, and in the Executable box, type:  c:\php\php.exe (assuming that you have unziped PHP in c:\php\). 

My W2000 has IIS 5 and these instructions are meaningless. No such tabs or buttons. I have checked all the tricks I could find, and php runs php -i from the command line O.K., but I can not inform IIS about its presence. Not bug 16336!

I have Win2000 as well and the instructions are ok.

You get to these pages by viewing Propperties on the web site (Home Directory tab), A virtual Directory or a Directory within the web site.

Thanks, fmk@php.net.  In IIS 5.0 this area is hard to locate. It is accessed by Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Server Applications & Services > Internet Information Services. There is no longer an Internet Services Manager.
Perhaps the doc ought to mention this access path, or at least advise a search in the IIS 5 doc for "IIS Snap-in". (In fact my system was set up for php but IIS still can not see it. Thanks anyway.) P.W.
