Appendix D. Installing IIS Web Server On Windows

A number of customers have asked for advice and instructions on setting up an IIS web server on
Windows.

Begin by identifying a host computer that has IIS and its physical and logical location on the network.
The Repository Server Requirements of the appendix “Setting Up A Repository” provide some
guidance on host requirements.

Start to install IIS by clicking on Start menu, Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs,
Add/remove Windows Components.
In the resultant menu check the Internet Information
Services(IIS)
box and select next.

Figure D.1. Installing IIS

Download the desired release (e.g. rr1.9.0.zip) from the RuggedCom website. Create the directory
ruggedcom under the IIS root directory C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\. Unzip the rr1.9.0.zip file within C:
\Inetpub\wwwroot\ruggedcom.

Start to enable IIS by clicking on Start menu, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Internet
Information Services.
Right click on Internet Information Services, Connect and enter the host
computer’s IP address, e.g. 192.168.0.1.

Verify the IIS web server by opening a web browser on another host on the network and entering
the URL http:// followed by the IP address IIS was installed with, followed by /ruggedcom, e.g.
http://192.168.0.1/ruggedrouter.
