Installing Microsoft Windows 2000 Server Components
This section describes how to install the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server components.
WARNING The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server is the one component not included
by default in the Microsoft Windows Server 2000 installer. Make sure you
select File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server under the Internet Information
Service (IIS) option during the installation.
Step 1 Install the Microsoft Windows 2000 Server.
• Select the Internet Information Services (IIS) option, including
the following IIS sub-options:
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Server
SMTP Service
World Wide Web Server
• Unselect FrontPage Server Extensions.
FrontPage Server Extensions are installed by default. This option
should be disabled because these extensions have been a source of
security problems for servers. There are several exploits using these
extensions that allow a hacker to gain access to the file system.
• Unselect Index Service.
The Index Service is installed by default. This option should be dis-
abled because it consumes unnecessary CPU cycles and has no pur-
pose in the context of the ShoreWare server.

software, including the Hotfixes and Service Packs if necessary.
