Installation
Firstly install virtual pc to install and practice SharePoint server and other servers needed for it.
you can download it by searching on www.bing.com .
After installing virtual PC , open virtual PC and install windows server 2003 on it by capturing iso image through virtual PC or by giving path. Now , install dot net frame 2 and dot net framework 3.
On the edit tab of virtual PC go to settings , then share folder and share a folder needed for installations. put all server and softwares in one folder then share that folder so that you can use it to capture iso image from it.
After installing dot net framework 2 and 3 . now go to control panel . Remember now we are inside virtual PC and we are using windows server 2003 as base Operating System (OS) . go to control panel of windows server 2003 .
control panel>add or remove programs>add window components>Application Server>go to details> mark (click) Asp.net and IIS >click next>Ok
>now it will ask for windows server 2003 path. for this go to CD tab of virtual PC and then go to capture iso image and give the path which is in shared folder.
We need ASP.NET to browse SharePoint sites we make later . After this we can see in C drive that a folder named Inetpub has been created.
