1. Dynamic Web Page
A dynamic web page is a kind of web page that has been prepared with fresh information (content and/or layout), for each individual viewing. It is not static because it changes with the time (e.g. news content), the user (e.g. preferences in a login session), the user interaction (e.g. web page game)

2. IIS 5.0
The soul of Windows 2000 Internet capabilities is IIS, formerly known as Internet Information Server but now re-titled with the more descriptive plural which leads this chapter. If you are fortunate, you have at your disposal a responsive IS staffer who will manage your development and production Web servers for you. It is more likely, however, that you need to perform some management of IIS yourself.
IIS is a group of Windows 2000 services, a service being a special class of Windows application that runs invisibly (without a user interface). Once installed, IIS component services launch at boot time and are available before you log in to the console.

3. IIS 5.0 default setup
The selection of services aired by IIS, and which are therefore available for you to manage, is based on the options selected by whoever installed Windows You may need to supplement the installed facilities to make the server a better home for development projects. Verify the installed IIS components by activating the Add/Remove Programs applet under Control Panel. Then select "Add/Remove Windows Components," and click the Components button that appears. When the component list appears, click over Internet Information Services (the text, not the checkbox) and then click the Details button. Items showing a check mark in the list (see Figure 1) are already installed. Refer to Table 1 for a summary of the available IIS components. If the checkbox for a component you need not to checked, check its box to install it.

6. MMC Microsoft Management Console
Introduction
MMC unifies and simplifies day-to-day system management tasks. It hosts tools and displays them as consoles. These tools, consisting of one or more applications, are built with modules called snap-ins. The snap-ins also can include additional extension snap-ins. MMC is a core part of Microsoft's management strategy and is included in Microsoft Windows® 2000 operating systems. In addition, Microsoft development groups will use MMC for future management applications.

7. MMC Microsoft Management Console
Microsoft Management Console enables system administrators to create special tools to delegate specific administrative tasks to users or groups. Microsoft provides standard tools with the operating system that perform everyday administrative tasks that users need to accomplish. These are part of the All Users profile of the computer and located in the Administrative Tools group on the Startup menu. Saved as MMC console (.msc) files, these custom tools can be sent by , shared in a network folder, or posted on the Web. They can also be assigned to users, groups, or computers with system policy settings. A tool can be scaled up and down, integrated seamlessly into the operating system, repackaged, and customized.

8. MMC Microsoft Management Console
Using MMC, system administrators can create unique consoles for workers who report to them or for workgroup managers. They can assign a tool with a system policy, deliver the file by , or post the file to a shared location on the network. When a workgroup manager opens the .msc file, access will be restricted to those tools provided by the system administrator.

9. Testing Web Server After you have installed IIS follow these steps:
Look for a new folder called Inetpub on your hard drive.
Open the Inetpub folder, and find a folder named wwwroot.
Create a new folder, like "MyWeb", under wwwroot.
Write some ASP code and save the file as "test1.asp" in the new folder.
Make sure your Web server is running (see below).
Open your browser and type " to view your first web page.
Note: Look for the IIS (or PWS) symbol in your start menu or task bar. The program has functions for starting and stopping the web server,  disable and enable ASP, and much more.

10. Virtual Directories
In computing, a virtual directory or virtual directory server consists of software that offers a way to provide a consolidated view of user identities without having to construct an entire directory infrastructure. Implemented in the form of middleware, a virtual directory operates as a lightweight service that operates between applications and identity-data repositories.

11. Virtual Directories
Click Start, point to Programs, click to select Administrative Tools, and then click Internet Services Manager.
Expand the server name.
In the left pane, right-click Default Web Site, point to New, and then click Virtual Directory.
In the first screen of the Virtual Directory Creation Wizard, type an alias, or name, for the virtual directory (such as MyWebData), and then click Next.
In the second screen, click Browse. Locate the content folder that you created to hold the content. Click Next.
In the third screen, click to select Read and Run scripts (such as ASP). Make sure that the other check boxes are cleared. Click Finish to complete the wizard.
For ASP content, you may want to confirm that an application was created. To do this, right-click the new virtual directory, and then click Properties.
On the Virtual Directory tab, make sure that the virtual directory name is listed in the Application Name box under Application Settings. If it is not, click Create. Note that the application name does not have to match the virtual directory alias.
Close the Properties dialog box.
