Setting up Perl with IIS6 on Windows Server 2003

The basic set up is pretty easy point and click stuff. The one tricky bit was getting IIS to run CGI scripts at all. That's because it comes with just about everything switched off by default as a security measure. What you need to do is make sure the Web Service Extension for CGI scripts is enabled. With Activestate's current build of Perl (5.8.8 at time of writing) the CGI extension is automatically added. However, it still needs enabling under Web Service Extensions.

VisualWin have an excellent article on how to set it up.
