I've used the Web-Developer Server Suite from www.devside.net to install everything on my personal PC. Everything worked great.
Now it is time to install Drupal onto the server in our office. Currently, we are hosting a 5-page static site "www.ouragency.org" using IIS6. I may or may not be able to convince my boss to switch to Apache (The consultant who set up our LAN is not an open-source guy.) If I have to add MySQL, PHP and Drupal over IIS6, where do I look for simple, direct instructions for installation.
Thanks,
Joe

Check the php site
Instructions for PHP are here: http://ca.php.net/install.windows.
MySQL doesn't care what web server is running.
I'm not sure how well Drupal itself runs on IIS, but I suspect it runs fine.

clean URLs may pose some difficulty
...or will probably be entirely unavailable. But the fact that this is a documented problem would indicate that aside from it, Drupal does run on IIS.

You can use Iconic's ISAPI
You can use Iconic's ISAPI Rewrite Filter on IIS. It supports Apache style syntax and PCRE - and what's more it's open source.
Add the following to IsapiRewrite4.ini:

I have added this info to my host but it isn't work.
Any suggestion?

Switch to IIS7 and use Microsofts rewrite engine.
