Thanks, that's what I went for in the end since I have a Server 2008 at home. All has gone well (IIS Fast CGI, MySQL 5.1, PHP 5.2.9, phpmyadmin and mysqldumper)

Must admit I had to mix a number of readme's to get MySQL installed and PHP configured, losts of conflicting info but went with one document in the end with a couple of minor amendments.

Does anyone have a readme as to what users require access to the wwwroot/forum folder.

I would imagine IUSR, IIS_USR and Network Service, but what permissions?

Also noticed mysqldumper would not get past the first screen untill I added everyone (full control on the folder (don't worry this is not public). Just wanted to check it was server permissions

Everything is up and running but I would ideally like to tie down permissions as 'priority'

Thanks,

Mark
