Re: front page 2003 running on small business server 2003 r2 issue

You are mistaken.

FrontPage will create sub webs in an existing web site that has FP
extensions installed.  It will create disc based webs on a hard disc,
where there is NO web server.  It cannot create a brand new, server
based web site.  A new web site requires a new IP address or Host
Header, DNS, a folder on the disc drive ... FrontPage might be able to
produce the folder, but cannot update DNS or supply Host-Headers or IP
addresses.

As Thomas said, the FP extensions for Windows 2003 are on the Windows
CD.

Template sites are just templates - design guides.  They contain some of
the files necessary to go IN a web site, they are not complete web
sites.
Apart from the database wizards, they do NOT include form handlers -
these depend on the server, FP extensions is an example of a form
handler.  The database wizards do not require FrontPage extensions on
the server.

The last version of FrontPage that included the extensions was FP 2000. 
This included FP2000 extensions, which if installed would break Windows
2003 (probably requiring reformat and re-install to repair).

It took some time to assemble an accurate overview of our exchanges so as to
attempt a feasible action plan.  Double teaming two Ron(s) added an extra bit
of muddle, as did the information interchange timings, but was able to
achieve a satisfactorily informative outcome using the old wasteful hard copy
paper/cut and paste methodology.

What I get is: Ron Symmonds advises first installing Server Extensions to be
found on my Windows OS CD.  Then there is the creation of  new IIS Websites
preliminary to publishing Front Page content websites to these receptacles. 
To clarify what is on this box: Small Business Server 2003 Standard R2 OS -
to which I have an effectively upgraded to Premium Edition as already in
possession of Front Page 2003 and SQL Server 2005 [with SP2].  Where exactly
are these extensions?  Disk One gives me the option to install the OS but no
partial option is apparent; and the Technologies CD also provides no such
option.  BTW thank you for your efforts to clarify other technical
relationships between the IIS server function and Front Page interface as
well as the real relevance of using template web sites.

Question: How and where do I go to install the Extensions from where among
my OS CDs?

RonX [also referred to as Thomas?  by Ron Symmonds] have tried to go through
Control PanelAdd/Remove ProgramsWindows Components.  There is no ‘option’
choice presented under IIS here,  IIS itself is not displayed as a separate
component among the 15 shown.  Does it form part of another component, and if
so which one and what’s the protocol involved to get the job done?

Guys, appreciate your help to get the foundations in place properly before
attempting the next step of setting up the IIS Server enabled web site
together.  This is stage one.  Only after these developmental aspects are
under control can my attention advance to shift on to Sharepoint Services. 
It is imperative these technical aspects get in place so my actual
operational projects can finally get started.

Tom, Subsequent to the last post went back to Control PanelWindows
ComponentsApplication Services, a step which needs to be specified in
futureIIS WAS checkedFront Page 2002 also checked.  We have been told they
exist in SBS2K3R2, so the next step is to attempt to set up a IIS Website in
IIS Manager, and then populate it with a Front Page [content] Web Site?

Ron Symonds (one "m") and Ronx are the same person. :)

FrontPage extensions are found by:
Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs
Click Add/Remove Windows Components
Click Application Server
Click Details button
Click Internet Information Service (IIS)
Click Details
Tick FrontPage 2002 Server Extensions
Click OK, Click OK, Click Next

You will need disc one for the Operating System.

Next step is to create a new website or two.  This will require that the
server is bound to multiple IP addresses - one extra IP address for each
new website.  To set this up you need
Control Panel->Network Connections-Local NetWork->Properties
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Properties
Advanced
Add
Fill in the form
Click OKs to clear the dialogues and restart the computer.

Create folders for the websites.

Use IIS MMC to create the websites.

Extend the websites using
Control Panel->Administrative Tools->SharePoint Administration Manager
Some advice for this is at http://www.rxs-enterprises.org/fp/b/smtp  -
this is not the complete handbook, but may get you going.

Do not confuse the above with SharePoint Central Administration, which
is for SharePoint sites.

Ron, went through step one to discover extensions already checked as
installed.  still unchecked and recheck the box twice and ran the
configuration wizard to completion each time.  also went to the web site you
sent me  to read it, but am not able to apply it as extensions are already
there and my issue is different.  next step: control panel-network
connections had a red x over local network as system employs a wireless
router.  however still selected it-properties-selected internet protocol
(tcp/ip)-advanced-add-presented with gateway address dialog box.  ?what is to
be entered in the gateway box?  it would seem it calls for an numeric
address, judging by the spaced dots.  where does this address come from, or
within what range if it is an arbitrary numeric address notation?   very wary
of fiddling with something unless the ramifications are clear.

If the server box is running on a wireless network, it is likely it is
using DHCP to obtain an IP address - this is not a good idea for a web
server.  The server should be wired to the router, and have a fixed IP
address. If the server is not wired  then the local lan will do nothing
for you.
Click on the Wireless connection you are using in Network connections,
then Properties, and continue as in the previous post.

If no default gateway is shown, then you are using DHCP and you will
need a networking expert to continue.
The default gateway is usually the IP address of the router.

The site I gave you requires that the extensions are installed - it
would be useless unless they were installed.
