IIS 5.X or earlier

In IIS 5 and earlier, Texis ISAPI is applied as an ``ISAPI Filter''. It is applied as a global filter that chooses to only intercepts certain requests. What path it should watch for and what webinator it should contact are configured via texis.cnf or the registry, as described above.

To manually add the Texis ISAPI Filter to IIS 5.x:

Open the IIS Configuration
- Right click on My Computer on the desktop.
- Select Manage....
- Open Services and Applications in the tree.
- Open Internet Information Services.
Bring up ISAPI properties
- Right-click on the Web Sites Folder (not an individual site).
- Select Properties.
- In the new Web Sites Properties window, select the ISAPI Filters tab.
Add the Texis ISAPI Filter
- Click the Add... button.
- In the new Filter Properties window, enter 'Texis ISAPI' in the Filter Name field.
- Click the Browse... button next to the Executable field, and browse to your ProxyModule.dll file.
  - (By default Webinator places this file in C:\windows\system32\inetsrv on 32bit windows, C:\windows\SysWOW64\inetsrv on 64bit windows).
- Click OK to close the Filter Properties window.
- Click OK to close the Web Site Properties window.
Restart IIS
- Right-click on Internet Information Services.
- Open the sub-menu All Tasks
- Select Restart IIS...
- in the 'What do you want IIS to do?' box, select Restart Internet Services on [YourComputer]
- Click OK to restart IIS.

IIS is now fully configured to use the Texis ISAPI Filter. You should have an entry in the Event Log detailing the results of Texis ISAPI's attempt to read settings.
