I just want to know how to host 2 websites in IIS on different ports. I looked at hte faqs in the help files, and they say to right click and choose new site, but, I see no such thing...any help is appreciated!
 
Sure it can be done.

Right click the web site in the IIS admin MMC and select properties.

On the "Web Site" tab, change the "TCP Port" that it listens to.

Done!
 
At this screen, screen shot you can change the port number. However, any website you host will have to include the port number in the address if you choose to host on a non standard port. Your DNS settings can be set to automatically include the port number if need be.
 
darn, i wasn't thinking at the time, but what I meant was to actually setup both websites in IIS. Once I can actually get it to take 2 websites, then the ports will be no prob. 🙂 So, I just wanna know how to tell IIS to take two different websites.
Thanks to who responded, though 🙂
 
It depends on what version of IIS you have. If you have IIS on windows 2000 server or advanced server, then you can use virtual hosting and run multiple websites on port 80. If you have win2k professional, I think you can only run 1 website. You might want to try using apache for windows which allows for virtual hosting.
