SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to install the FrontPage Server Extensions to
additional identities on a multi-homed WebSite Pro 1.1f server, the
additional server identities no longer appear in the Server
Administrator.
All of the server's identities remain fully functional. The problem
only affects how the identities appear in the FrontPage Server
Administrator.
CAUSE
The FrontPage Server Extensions Setup program bases it's internal
arrays on a different indexing system than the WebSite server does.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
WORKAROUND
To see all of the identities in the FrontPage Server Administrator,
use one of the following methods.
Method 1: Use Command Line Arguments to Specify Identities
Start the FrontPage Server Administrator from the MS-DOS command
prompt to bypass the user interface that lists the identities. At the
MS-DOS command prompt, type the following and then press ENTER:
CD c:\Program Files\Microsoft FrontPage\bin
Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
fpsrvwin -o install -t website -m <identity name>
The IP addresses will appear in the FrontPage Server Administrator.
Method 2: Reinstall the FrontPage Server Extensions Only
Download the FrontPage Server Extensions from the following Microsoft Web
site:
When you install to additional identities, simply select the
additional identities from the list of identities. Identities that
you have already installed the extensions to will continue to
function correctly.
Method 3: Remove and then Reinstall the Extensions
Uninstall the server extensions for all of the multi-homed servers, and
then quit the FrontPage Server Administrator. Restart the FrontPage Server
Administrator and install the server extensions. All the IP addresses
will reappear in the FrontPage Server Administrator.
Method 4: Rerun the FrontPage Setup Program
Rerun the FrontPage Setup program, click Custom Installation, and install
the Server Extensions component. All the IP addresses will reappear in the
FrontPage Server Administrator.
