    Best server IIS or Apache or anything else?

    Which one is the best server IIS or the Apache? Most of them told that IIS is more reliable. Can u explain me difference between them and can u also tell me what are the other servers that support ASP.

    IIS would probably be better for ASP. I have not tried Apache with ASP so I don't know how it handles it.

    Apache won't support ASP by nature, you have to get chili ASP.

    Or this: http://www.apache-asp.org/index.html if you like Perl (mod_perl would be easier, IMHO).

    you are joking right?!

    Apache runs the majority of the world's servers; with good reason

    IIS has ASP support by default, if that's your poison...but keep in mind IIS has time and time again been proven to be the WEAKEST most swiss cheese-esque webserver out there. As far as I'm concerned just having IIS installed is a security hole waiting to be taken advantage of...Apache has a very good track record, though i'm not 100% what it's windows port has for a reputation.

    Installing any server software is a security hole waiting to happen. Saying Apache is more secure than IIS is unprovable and irrelevent.
