AW: [OpenLayers-Users] How to configure Proxy.cgi with IIS

If your page and your wfs server comes from the same domain like

Page : http://172.20.100.13/Myapp/layers.aspx

Url of WFS : http://172.20.100.13/Myapp/wfsserver?...

, then you need no proxy script for wfs requests. 

To display WMS layers you don't need any proxy, there is no cross-domain
problem.

That the page doesn't show your layers, have to be some other reason.

Only if you request for a wfs service from an other domain then the page
like http://172.20.100.13:8080/Myapp/wfsserver? (port added)
or  
http://myServerByName/Myapp/wfsserver? (name instead of ip)
, then you need a proxy.

The easiest way to understand the cross-domain problem is to use relative
urls. If you can't use a relative url to request a wfs service (also for
vector layers as KML or GML), then you need a proxy.

Betreff: [OpenLayers-Users] How to configure Proxy.cgi with IIS

I installed GeoServer on server 172.20.100.13 and i also publish my
OpenLayers application on same server. when i make the request to this
server for accessing the page like,
(http://172.20.100.13/Myapp/layers.aspx), then WMS and WFS Layers does not
display over Google Map. But the same application with geoserver installed
on localhost works fine.

As i understand from different forums, I need to configure Proxy.cgi with
IIS to fix this problem and then use it as:
Openlayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.py?url"

I want to know, Am i right or wrong in my understanding OR i am making a
mistake.

If i am right, Then can anybody please tell me how i configure Proxy.cgi
with IIS ?  If some usefuk link available to fix this, then it will be very
good for me.
