Hi,

   In reading KB815176 it says that you can install .net framework on
systems including NT 4.0, but it says that you need to have IIS 5 installed. 
However IIS 5 to my knowledge (and reading posts) can't be installed on NT
4.0.  Does having small business server for NT 4 make a difference?  I'm not
familiar with it as I'm installing it on a friend's machine.

Thanks - Zack

Hi Zack,

You need IIS 5+ if you want to create web applications (asp.net).  You 
don't need it to create other types of programs.  I don't think small 
business server for nt4 would make a difference, but I don't know for sure.
I've read rumors that you can force iis 5 onto nt4 in some way or other, 
but I couldn't locate anything substantial.
