Multiple Versions Issue

        Currently, I am developing a Mapserver application on a server used to host several different web apps. In order to avoid causing version issues with other applications (which I am not responsible for), I am attempting to install a completely encapsulated version of Mapserver and Chameleon on the server -  Windows2000 with IIS.

        I have a straight-forward installation on my local XP box, but I use the PATH variable to set the location of the DLL's for mapserver. On the web server, I was hoping that I could simply place all of the required dlls in the same directory (MS44/bin), and that mapserv.exe would use these dlls for its execution. However, I get a CGI header return error when I access the mapserv.exe file through the browser, indicating that a DLL was not found properly (correct?). The mapserv.exe and dlls are in a virtual directory under the main web, with read and execute permissions. IUSR has also been granted access to the directory.

        Anyone have any experience with this? TIA
