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

The FP extensions are not provided with FP, they are provided with the Windows OS. The option is
under Windows | Add/Remove | Windows Components | IIS

Ronx, now you have me somewhat confused. it is my understanding front page
2003, when used to create a web site, does the whole job. meaning - when one
publishes the site from the hard drive where it is originally saved [for
control purposes] to a web server the site is created on the web server by
front page itself. the only difference in my circumstance is the fact iis
6.0 is my web server and resident on the same computer as the one used to
create the site. in fact to avoid chances of comitting 'operator error' the
test sites used by me are ms template sites, so should be complete with all
the necessary service files. furthermore, it is also my [perhaps misguided]
belief when installing front page as a full install with aoo the options the
server extensions are included by default. are you suggesting running the
windows business server program to reinstall server extensions? just do not
want to get more muddle in the mix than need be.

I have only a passing acquaintance with SBS, but IIS does not need much
configuring, except for individual web sites.
The company web site and other web sites can be dealt with in parallel.
The Company Web Site uses SharePoint Services, not the FrontPage
extensions; it is unlikely (though possible) that other sites will use
WSS, but may use FrontPage extensions instead.

Install FrontPage extensions from the Windows 2003 CD.
Create your websites from IIS MMC and extend them if you need
extensions.

thanks for your reply Ronx. from your questions it would seem i've gone
about this whole exercise incorrectly. is it possible you could work with
me, provide me step-wise directions so i can achieve each plateau in an
orderly fashion. this may allow me to achieve the outcome, if the interim
steps are implemented properly- obviously something all wrong in my
blundering so far.
is it on target to assume you have familiarity with the the small business
server operating system as well? am doing other work debugging iis in
parallel efforts on my part. seems appropriate. am doing so within another
thread.
it would seem first i must correctly configure iis within sbs, discouver
what's going on right now. next:add server extensions and then go about
actually implementing the 'company web' itself before trying to add the other
web sites.
otherwise there'd be too many loose variables on the table. or is my take
incorrect?

Have you created a website in IIS for the new sites? Did you wish to
overwrite the Company Web site, which it sounds like you are doing?
Are the new websites sharepoint sites, or FrontPage extended sites? If
extended, you will need a new website and install the FrontPage
extensions on the server, then configure the new website with the
extensions.

bear with me, am a newby with all kinds of system issues. this one concerns
attempts to publish two web sites [both templates so they're clean] to
localhost. 'myfirstattempt' local log showed success, but using explorer
only turned up default 'companyweb' with the option to install it. have
never been able to get this to work in either sharepoint 2.0 or 3.0, so for
all intents it remains unistalled.

but it is the only thing which comes up on 'localhost'. then tried to
publish 'publishtowebserver' another template. log files reveal conflict for
index.htm both in local and remote site logs. hit 'publish' button @ lower
right next. got dropdown box with list of 'conflicts', chose to 'ignore and
continue', got another dropbox:FP3 has detected that changes you have made to
the navigation structure conflicts with changes another author has made to
website you are publishing to. what do you want to do-->let FP merge the
changes. comment: interesting as am the only user; outcome: both local
+remote web site confolict @ index.htm.

in explorer localhost brought up a sbs2003 page: options: if you chose 'my
company intranet web site" you get mycompany homepage; choose network
configruation wizard you get 'page cannot be found, and error 404; choose
remote workplace' it asks for username/password access; 'information and
answers' choice provides options to learn all about SBS2K3

am trying to solve this issue from sbs2k3r2 side troubleshooting a number of
aspects. how this interfaces with fp3 may provide a common solution.
uninstalling and reinstalling iis6.0 inadvisable; have reinstalled sharepoint
2.0 and the 3.0 upgrade to no avail.

my problem solving skills limited by lack of experience and confidence.
really need step by step direction to conquer these challenges. thanks in
advance, it will probably be a long and tedious process.
