Sounds like you want to do this from a windows workstation, then you will need IIS - they come with any Windows 200X Server OS like 2000 or 2003.

I think you might be able to install IIS onto a XP server as well but I've never done that personally.

So your best bet install Windows 2003 Server which comes with IIS by default.

Honestly I'd go with a Linux box and Apache
