I'm surprised you were able to get it going at all as a virtual server.  I
tried the same thing on a NT4/SP6a with IIS4 box and LISTSERV didn't like
being a virtual web.  I've never tried with any previous SP so can't comment
on that part.

What port is the virtual web running through?  I found that if I configured
the LISTSERV web to run through port 80 all by itself it was perfectly
happy.

Chazzozz!!
