I have created a basic site using ASP.NET routing according to Mike Ormond's example "Using ASP.NET routing Independent of MVC". This works fine on my local machine running the built-in web server.

However, when I deploy it to my server (Windows Server 2003, IIS 6, ASP.NET 3.5 SP1) it just shows a 404 error.

I have read somewhere that I am meant to set up wildcard routing. How can I do this?

What other configuration changes needs to be done to make it work on my server?

You will find some good information on Steve Sanderson’s blog post "Deploying ASP.NET MVC to IIS 6."
