the “details” involve making sure that all supporting DLLs are set

may need to tweak a few things to make sure any paths used in the application point
to the right things.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

are now asking me to load MapServer and sent me the link to download it.
I have downloaded version 4.4.1 and I have not a clue what to do with it.
Frankly, I’m quite lost, maybe because I come from a Microsoft
background. Is there anyone out there that can send me documentation or
help me set up MapServer on a Windows 2003 Server with IIS? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
