Update on permalink issues with WordPress and IIS
I think I did get it figured out, at least to an acceptable degree. I had initially selected ‘Custom’ and specified a format I wanted to use along with information in the previous post. But it wouldn’t work, I just got a blank page when I tried to bring up just the post page via the permalink. I even contacted my hosts tech support and after some research they said they didn’t support permalinks. Isn’t a permalink really just a URL? Maybe he was talking doing some of the redirection or something.
Just for the heck of it I tried ‘Date and Name based’. IT WORKED! Now I can go on to see if I can get an RSS feed setup.

The wp-404-handler.php file from the link in this post is needed to get the pretty permalinks to work.
