Anyone out there successfully done a multi-site setup on IIS? How did you do it? I'm looking to flesh out the documentation - so far all I can find is this discussion in the forums...

per-site php config on IIS
Interesting articles on per-site php config here (IIS6) and here (IIS7, using the applicationHost.config file).

Thanks for the links, I will check them out. I have and admit it was a struggle. I just need to refresh my memory and post the steps if anyone else is interested. There was one bit that had me going around in circles for a while.

We have been running multisite with no problems for over a year on a WIMP stack. We used to use ISAPI_rewrite but no longer need it on WS2008. It's pretty much the same as multi-site on LAMP, except that you use virtual directories instead of symlinks if you want to do subdirectory sites.
