The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you install Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 on a computer running
Microsoft Cluster Server, if you run the Iissync utility from the source server
to the target server, only the IIS utilities, the utilities, and the System
Packages are left; all other packages are deleted. At this point, the only way
to recover the system is to completely uninstall IIS 4.0 on both servers in the
cluster, and then reinstall IIS 4.0 on both servers. The status returned by the
IISSYNC utility is :2147500037.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, configure the Microsoft Transaction Server
Replication information.

STATUS
======

This problem was corrected in Microsoft Internet Information Services version
5.0 for Window 2000.
