ISAPI DLL on IIS6 - Very Basic Setup Question

I am working on a project to move an application written eight years ago as
a C++ ISAPI extension DLL accessing an MS SQL Server 6.5 data base and
running on an old Netscape web server to Windows 2003 Server, IIS 6.0, and
SQL Server 2000. Migrating the data base, tweaking the code to compile and
link under Visual Studio 2003, and removing the Netscape hooks appears to
have gone well, however I am now stuck at what looked like it should be a
very simple matter -- accessing the DLL under IIS 6. At the moment, after
some twiddling, I am getting an HTTP 500 error whenever I hit any of the URL
links on the site that invoke the DLL.

Rather than try to unravel the current state of the latest version of my
test site (post my twiddling) I think it would be most useful if someone
might be able to tell me (or point me to a reference) exactly what steps I
should take properly to add and to configure a virtual web site under IIS
6.0 that includes an ISAPI extension DLL. Thanks!

All the best,

will
