I am new to SharePoint and I am having problems getting the default web site to come up.

Answer 5

By the way and as information for next time.

This is completely the wrong forum for this kind of question. There is an add-on program for MOSS 2007 called the Knowledge Network. *That* is what this forum is for.

Next time post similar questions to the setup_and_administration (or similar name) forum. I suspect there will be many more people there reading the forum than this one so your chances of getting an answer that helps you will be that much more.
