Configuring IIS 4.0 (WinNT4.0), IIS 5.0 (Win2000), IIS 5.1
(WinXP), IIS 6.0 (Win2003) Web Servers

1. Create a “backup” folder under the root directory of your Web server. All backup files will be stored in that directory.

If your backup folder is, for instance, C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/backup, the 46xxsettings.txt file should have a line similar to:

[SET BRURI http://www.website.com/backup/]
 

If your backup folder is the root directory, the 46xxsettings.txt file should have a line similar to:

[SET BRURI http://www.website.com/]
 

2. Use the “Internet Information Services Manager” or “Internet Information Services,” depending on the OS used. Go to Start => Settings => Control Panel => Administrative Tools.
3. Right click the folder created for backup, or right click Default Web Site if there is no specific backup directory.
4. Select Properties.
5. In the Directory tab, ensure that the Write box is checked.

Additional steps for IIS 6.0 (Win2003):

6. Use the “Internet Information Services.” Go to Start => Settings => Control Panel => Administrative Tools.
7. Below Default Web Site, select the Web Services Extension.
8. Make sure the WebDAV option is set to Allowed.
