Obsolete for IIS 4 and FP Extensions 2000.
FP98 Extensions - Part 1
These are the buried instructions that allow you to activate the SMTP and NNTP transfer protocols. This must be done before you can do a Form-to-email within a web site using FrontPage or the cgi components that use SMTP.
You must have service pack 4 or higher to do this.
Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP),
Network News Transport Protocol (NNTP)
Protocol (NNTP) enhancements are available in this Service Pack [4].
SMTP now supports the following services:
Multiple virtual servers, or sites.
ETRN command for dequeing mail over dial-up connections.
Instructions to Enable this Functionality
Create a text file with the following text:
set obj = GetObject ( "IIS://localhost/smtpsvc" )
obj.Put "SmtpServiceVersion", 2
obj.SetInfo
Note: This is an Active Directory Service Interface (ADSI) script that will update a value in the metabase.
Save this file as Enable.vbs
From a command prompt, type the following and press ENTER:
cscript enable.vbs
