Hello!
Which way is better?
Few days ago I received from MS a newsletter which mentioned about FastCGI extension:
Recently, Microsoft announced the availability of the
Go Live release of Microsoft FastCGI Extension for IIS 5.1/6.0 (FastCGI Extension) as a
free download from the IIS community site,
www.iis.net.
The Go Live release is the last step in the Microsoft beta process and
represents the highest level of quality and reliability. For the first
time, customers have a license that permits them to deploy the FastCGI
Extension on their production Internet Information Services 6.0 (IIS 6)
Web servers.
This release could not have come at a more exciting time for the technology: previous beta releases on
IIS.NET have had over
14,000 downloads and no less than six hosting partners have already begun offering PHP hosting on IIS 6 with the FastCGI Extension. In addition to downloads, the
www.iis.net community site also has a very active forum of users exchanging ideas and providing feedback about the FastCGI Extension.
Call to Action:

Background
Since early 2006, Microsoft and Zend have been working together on a
technical collaboration with the PHP community to significantly enhance
the reliability and performance of PHP on Windows Server 2003 and
Windows Server 2008. As part of this collaboration, the IIS product
group has been working on a new component for IIS6 and IIS7 called
FastCGI Extension which will enable IIS to much more effectively host
PHP applications.
Does someone tryed to compare ways of enabling PHP on Windows 2003? Which one is best?
Thank You
