[mapserver-users] Get demo started on Windows 2000.

I've got the demo "itasca" to work on my windows NT, but I really want it to
work on my windows 2000. I've installed everything in the correct places as
described in 'readme.gif.wms.html' when installing the binary (pre-compiled)
MApserver version 3.6.1.
I changed my demo.map file and demo_init.html file to work with my windows
IIS. When I load demo_init.html in IE and click 'Initialize' the MapServer
Demo Interface pops up, but no images are show. There are no Images that are
created in the "tmp" directory. It worked on my Windows nt, same setup.

THe following is my demo_init.html file:
<html>
<head><title>MapServer Demo Interface</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

<center><h2>MapServer Demo Interface</h2></center>
<p><hr><p>
Click on the initialize button to fire up the demo with 3 layers turned on
will be accessible for browsing. The
data are of Itasca County, MN and were derived, for the most part, from USGS
1:24,000 quadrangles. Some things to note are:

<form method=GET action="http://dell810/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe">

<input type="hidden" name="map" value="c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\itasca\demo.map">
<input type="hidden" name="layer" value="lakespy2">
<input type="hidden" name="layer" value="dlgstln2">
<input type="hidden" name="zoomsize" value=2>

<input type="hidden" name="program" value="/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe">
<input type="hidden" name="map_web_imagepath"
value="c:\inetpub\wwwroot\tmp\">
<input type="hidden" name="map_web_imageurl" value="\tmp\">

<center><input type="submit" value="Initialize"></center>

</form>

<p><hr><p>

</body></html>

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
John
