Ed always says something like that, and then I always post the
following two links:
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/ca_enabledynamiccontent.asp
and
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/standard/proddocs/en-us/ca_configcgi.asp

Look at your IIS (and Active Directory) configuration, not at
mapserver, because the "problem" is with IIS. Ed's point is that it's
not really a "problem", it's an added level of complexity in
Win2003Server/IIS/AD.
