Hi,

Is it possible to run multiple instances of IIS on a single instance of
Windows Server 2003? I would like different portions of our Web
applications to have different database permissions. If our Web site could
be handled by multiple IIS instances running under different domain logon
accounts, then each instance could have different database server access.
I'm trying to move away from the need to manage SQL Server logons.

No, you cannot have multiple instances of IIS running at the same time.

But you can have multiple websites, and multiple application pools (worker
process), which can be separated so that they are completely independent
of each other. Or in other words, you should be able to accomplish what
you want by using different worker processes for each portion of your web
application.
