Doing my first install of Plesk for Windows I was a little confused regarding which windows services Plesk required to be installed to have a functioning system that did not have any redudant components installed.
Nowhere could I find reference to which services or options to install IIS and or other services within windows itself. Should I install Mail services or not - I know we need it but does plesk install it or use windows service which should be installed already - until you have done an install you don't know.
Having done it now and with experience with Windows it is no problem but I would assume a lot of people would go astray and end up wasting time because there was no process to lead them through the basic windows install/configuration after they have run the Win2003 installation CD.
ie - Install IIS with FTP service, QOS packet scheduler on the NIC etc....
