How to enable Python Scripts with MS IIS Web Server?

[jb]

hi,

    you should first install win32all : 
http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/

    next, 2 ways 2 proceed, but the first is the easier :

    you make a "test.asp" page in the folder

    at the top, you write <@Language=Python%>

    a line below : <%Response.Write("Hello World")%>

    try if the page works well. if it works then your python/iis install is 
ok

    the second way is to keep the .py extension and to associate it with the 
python executable

hope this helps
