I recently set up url rewriting for Mango Blog on both IIS 7.5 and Apache 2.2. I followed the excellent guide by Adam Tuttle, but experienced a few issues along the way, so I decided to add a post that may prove helpful to someone else down the road.

URL rewriting for Mango Blog with IIS 7.5 and Apache 2.2

Serving PDF files from Windows Server 2008 R2 Web Edition
Posted by John
I just moved a site that has a large collection of pdf files that are searchable though a verity collection from being hosted on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 R2 Web Edition. Much to my disbelief, I was unable to download many of the pdf files on the new server. After doing a little searching I found out that there is a known issue with IIS 7.5 and serving pdf files. According to chatter on the net the problem revolves around how IIS 7.5 does byte-range requests and a bug in the Adobe Reader plugins. More information is available on the this thread at forums.iis.net.
Creating 301 Redirects on IIS7

I've been moving a site from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 and thought I would mention one of the items I ran into this evening.I needed to setup 301 redirects for some old domain names that we no longer use and at first glance could not figure out where to do so.
