In reply to: Windows 2003 and Permlinks; HTTP Error 404They will need to buy the software and install it on the Master IIS site in IIS6. Provide RX permissions to the Anon_user group they use for shared website owners on the ISAPI_rewrite.dll.
Users can then simply upload a httpd.ini file if they want to use ISAPI_Rewrite and those that do not have a httpd.ini file will not be affected.

In reply to: Windows 2003 and Permlinks; HTTP Error 404Sorry just noticed. I should have said ISAPI_Rewrite will have NO global consequences when done right.

In reply to: Windows 2003 and Permlinks; HTTP Error 404Yeah but it will not do what you want as it only re-writes specific URLs. It *might* work but to be honest it is likely to give you some issues with some URLs working and some not.
If they do it right it has ISAPI_Rewrite global consequences.

In reply to: Windows 2003 and Permlinks; HTTP Error 404It is a httpd.ini file (the txt extension is so you can view it). It will only work if your host has ISAPI_Rewrite installed on a per site basis and if you use the same permalink string as mentioned. You can of course edit the Rewrite rules to your specific permalink set-up

In reply to: Windows 2003 and Permlinks; HTTP Error 404Does your host have ISAPI_Rewrite or similiar? otherwise the permalinks wont work on Windows 2003. We use ISAPI_Rewrite on Windows 2003 and got WordPress working after some investigation and testing. See here
