IIS 6.0 dropping connection

[rstainforth]

Hi all,

I'm new to IIS (beyond the basics necessary to set it up) but have a bit of a problem...

I have IIS installed on a W2K3 AD server, acting as a DC, and it is used to host WSUS (no other websites). It is set up in the default (ie connect to port 80 etc). yesterday when I tried to access the admin console to check up on WSUS i got the old dns error page, and can't access anything on the server. There are no errors in the IIS logs, but when I try to telnet to port 80 it just severs the connection immediately.

Not really sure where to start looking with this, tried uninstalling WSUS and IIS and reinstalling yesterday, but problem still persists...is it possibly a rights issue, or something screwed up in the metabase??
