Enable Web Installation, IIS and MIME- types

[NewsArchive]

We have moved our installs to a new webserver.
Initally, LiveUpdate didn't work, because the .wuf file was not found.
This I fixed by adding a MIME type wuf as text/plain.

Then, installs failed downloading the individual files in a Web
Installation. These have file extensions .00001 to 00092 in my case.
Adding one MIME type for each file doesn't sound right.

Anyone know how to setup IIS (7) to allow download of those files?

Thanks

The following should get you going:

There are more MIME related threads, but this should do it.
