Multiple Domains in XP. Solutions for win xp domain hosting and links relating to techniques that can be employed to let you create multiple domains in XP.
|
Welcome to the page where you will find information relating to creating multiple websites using Windows XP. If you are running Windows XP Professional on your computer it comes with Microsoft's web server, Internet Information Server 5.1 (IIS). IIS is not installed by default on Windows XP Professional but you can install it from the Windows XP Pro installation CD and configure it to run on your system.
There are limits on the XP Pro version of IIS the most significant being that you cannot create more than one website and it is limited to 10 connections meaning you cannot develop multiple domains in XP. This is because it is a client operating system and is provided to serve as a development platform, not to act as a server. To get unlimited websites and connections it is advisable to invest in a server operating system such as windows 2003 server web edition.
However there are a few tricks and downloads that allow you to create multiple domains in XP.
Running multiple IIS web sites on Windows XP Professional
You can get past Windows XP Professional's version 5.1 of IIS only supporting a single website and actually create multiple domains in XP. The only catch is that you can't have them all running at the same time. However, if you have the situation where you are developing or working on several web sites and one or more have the requirement that they must be the "root site" of the web rather than a vroot (Virtual Directory), then this little trick is for you!
All you need to do is copy the C:\WinNT\System32\Inetsrv\IISAdmin folder and its contents from any Windows 2000 SERVER machine to the same location on your Windows XP Pro machine. Then go into IIS Manager snap-in and set this as a virtual directory in the Default web site (which of course, up until this time was the only web site you had in there). Now open up Internet Explorer and navigate to the web - based IIS Admin pages at http://localhost/IISAdmin, and you get the rest. Create as many new Web Sites as you like, just make sure that only one is turned on at any one time and you can develop multiple domains in XP.

Why? Because they blocked this site without proper reason and after about one year of negotiation still have not given a proper reason nor proper instructions of how to fix any problems

XP PRO IIS Admin
Managing multiple web servers on Windows 2000/XP Professional
(Enables you to create multiple domains in XP).
What is it?
XP Pro IIS Admin is a free tool for using on Windows 2000/XP Pro.
It allows you to create multiple domains in XP and easily switch between those websites.
Without this utility on Windows 2000/XP Professional only one website can be created.
Why you need this utility:
Most web developers work with many websites at the same time.
However, on standard Windows Professional it is hard to switch between different web sites.
Using this tool, you can switch between websites in one second allowing you to easily develop multiple domains in XP.
How does it work?
When it starts up you will see a list of your websites.
However, the first time you use it there will be a only single default web site.
Clicking "Create" button enables you to create a new web site.
Click on a website to start it.
The other websites will be stopped first, so that you only have one website running.
Once the website is created, you can customise it further in IIS Management Console.
