IIS 5.1 defaults are associated with which operating system?

  1. Windows 2000

  2. Windows XP

  3. Windows 7

  4. Windows Vista

The correct answer is: Windows XP

The default association of IIS 5.1 is with Windows XP. This version of Internet Information Services (IIS) was included with Windows XP Professional and was designed to provide web server functionalities for desktop operating systems, allowing developers to host web applications and test them locally. IIS 5.1 provided various improvements over its predecessor (IIS 5.0), which was bundled with Windows 2000, including better performance and enhanced support for web applications. While other versions of Windows, like Windows 2000, Windows Vista, and Windows 7, also feature different iterations of IIS, they are associated with different versions. Hence, understanding that IIS 5.1 is specifically a feature of Windows XP is crucial for grasping how web server technologies evolved along with Windows operating systems.
