Windows x64 IIS 6 running 32-bit App Pools

Internet Information Services in Windows x64 is 64-bit.  This means, if you want to run 32-bit ISAPI DLLs with IIS6 on Windows x64, you'll need to apply a small tweak.  Open up a Command Prompt window, and type this command to enable 32-bit Application Pools:

cscript %SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

Down the road, if you've made the required steps to update your stuff to 64-bit, type the following to re-enable 64-bit Application Pools:

cscript %SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 0

Hi together,

when i do as describt, i can no further contact my webserver by http. Local and remote.

It seemed the IIS6.0 doesn't work no more.

If i reset the option, it's working again.

What i really need is the possibility to run a VB6-DLL on a Win2003-System with IIS6.0.

We need ASP-Files for instantiating the VB6-Objects which connect a database on a remote server.

Is anyone there knowing if and how it runs??

Hoping for answers

JW

This description is incomplete according to me.  I am trying to enable the application pools but it is not working on my PC.  There might be some cookie problems or might be the problem of firewall.  I will like to know if any one has faced the same problem.  Is there any possibility that we can use it for Windows 2003 system?  I will like to see more reviews and comments on it and then will finally decide whether to go for it or not.  While trying for the same I was unable to connect to my web server.  Hope some one here will assist me in knowing the exact problem.
