Installing the FileMaker Pro Web Server Connector on
Microsoft IIS and PWS
This chapter explains how to install the FileMaker Pro Web Server
Connector with Microsoft Personal Web Server (Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT Workstation 4.0) and Microsoft Internet
Information Server (Windows NT Server 4.0).
The FileMaker Pro Web Server Connector uses the same installer for
Personal Web Server and Internet Information Server.
Installing with Microsoft Internet Information
Server and Microsoft Personal Web Server
Important
Installing this program requires you to restart your server.
Before you begin the installation process, save your work, exit other
open programs, and turn off virus protection utilities. Remember to
turn on virus protection utilities again when the installation is
complete.
Note Internet Information Server or Personal Web Server must be
installed prior to the installation of the FileMaker Pro Web Server
Connector. For IIS or PWS installation instructions, refer to the
documentation included with your web server software.
Windows NT Server/IIS If you use the FileMaker Pro 5 Web Security
database to control user name and password access, you must establish
Windows NT accounts with these same user names and passwords. IIS
authenticates these before passing them on to FileMaker Pro.
Windows NT Workstation/PWS If you are installing the Web Server
Connector on Windows NT Workstation with PWS, you must disable
Basic Authentication prior to installing the Web Server Connector.
To disable Basic Authentication, Internet Connection Services for
RAS must be installed, as it is required to access the Internet Services
Manager. Installing Internet Connection Services for RAS is an
option in the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack installer. If Internet
Connection Services for RAS was not installed as part of the Option
Pack 4.0 installation, you must uninstall the Option Pack and
reinstall it with this option enabled. Refer to the documentation
included with your server software for instructions on this procedure.
To install the Web Server Connector:
1. Insert the Web Server Connector CD-ROM into the CD-ROM
drive.
2. Click the arrow next to Install FileMakerWSC5-IIS to begin the
installation.
3. In the Welcome screen, click Next.
