asp.net : IIS built-in compression
Who knows beginning from which version of IIS, 5 or 6 only, and what system
like 2000 Server, 2000 Advanced Server, we can use the built-in compression? I heard once that it was implemented beginning from Windows 2000 Server and we could use it but I'm not sure that it's true. Right now we're having Win2000AdvServer and want to get this feature. But according to this article we can't use it, but only from IIS 6.0 http://www.wwwcoder.com/main/parentid/170/site/3669/68/default.aspx Who knows for sure? Thanks, Just D.
You might want to check out the forums/blogs on port80software.com as they
have good articles on these sorts of things: http://www.port80software.com/200ok/ -Brock http://staff.develop.com/ballen [quoted text, click to view] > Who knows beginning from which version of IIS, 5 or 6 only, and what > system like 2000 Server, 2000 Advanced Server, we can use the built-in > compression?

You can compress on Windows 2000, but not via the internal IIS compression. You can use add ons like httpcompress (http://www.blowery.org/code/HttpCompressionModule.html). HTTPCompress is an http module for ASP.NET, you basically define it within your web.config. The one drawback however, since it is an http module, it will only compress files processed by the CLR. It will not compress ASP pages just aspx, etc. HTTPCompress is free and is what I use on WWWCoder.com for compressing content. Using a third party module allows you to compress based on mime type, and folder, something IIS compression does not support. There are several commercial modules available, but I like httpcompress since it is free and you get the source code. Patrick Santry http://www.wwwcoder.com
I see the settings, if you right click on the top most node "Internet
Information Services", and select properties. This will bring up a dialog, in the Master Properties section select the "WWW Services" from the drop down and click on the Edit button. This will bring up the compression dialog. As far as how effective or how well it works, I don't know I never used it.
Thanks a lot,
Yes, I know about commercial modules, but I didn't hear about this compressor, thanks, it will be interesting. I also found many articles including MSDN article about compression in IIS 5.0, but actually I could not find anything for me My version if IIS doesn't have these tabs in settings and I'm just wondering why Microsoft provided wrong or not full information about this topic. Take a look. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/technologies/iis/maintain/featusability/httpcomp.mspx That's strange. I suspect that they forgot to write that this compression is added to Server and Advanced server version only and write about ANY IIS 5.0, but that's not true. Just D.

That's your problem, your using a Workstation OS, you need to use a
server based OS.
I think it's not very efficient by default keeping in mind this article, but
it can be changed. It seems that this compressor doesn't work with ASPX content by default. http://www.wwwcoder.com/main/parentid/170/site/3669/68/default.aspx Just D.

Ok, cool, take a look. Here are the screen shots of all these right clicks.
And where? This is Windows XP Pro. I also tried to do the same on Windows 2000 Pro - same result. http://members.cox.net/dshvetsov/1.jpg http://members.cox.net/dshvetsov/2.jpg http://members.cox.net/dshvetsov/3.jpg http://members.cox.net/dshvetsov/4.jpg I don't see this tab.

Ups,
I hope you're right, because I've seen that in a previous version of this article, maybe it was finally fixed. Just D. [quoted text, click to view] "Juan T.

Yes,
That's what I was starting with. M$ doesn't explain that in articles. The main difference between Home and Pro edition is IIS, but this "Pro" IIS doesn't include compression. The maximum that I could get was that: I assume that I can add that manually because everything in Windows is confugurable, we just need to know the way. http://members.cox.net/dshvetsov/5.jpg Just D.

Which part of the article did you get that impression from ?
"ASPNetCompressTemp" would seem to indicate that compression *does* work with aspx pages. Sure, there is "some CPU overhead used on every page request for dynamic content", but the compression bandwidth savings are still there. Juan T.
