Software: FP 2002, XP Pro, IIS 5.1

I have a web in c:/inetpub/wwwroot
I can access the web using that path in FrontPage.
I have added a default.htm and if opened with MSIE browser the site works as
expected.
I can even open http://localhost/default.htm

But
If I try to 'open the web' http://localhost/ from FrontPage I get: You do
not have permission to access this web folder location.

If I try to open http://socrates/ , which is my computer name I get:
Connecting to web server... times out with error message: the folder
http://socrates isn't accessible. The folder may be located in and
unavailable location, protected with a password, or the filenames containes
a / or \.

Doing a little research I found this article about IIS 5.0.

Article ID: 271071

How to set required NTFS permissions and user rights for an IIS 5.0 Web
server

Should I use this article to setup IIS 5.1 with FrontPage 2002? Would I want
to?

How should I be administering the wwwroot web with IIS 5.1 and FrontPage
2002? I would like full functionality for FrontPage 2002, including subwebs,
and with the ability to publish to a commercial internet hosting service
that provides FP 2002 server extensions. I do not need to collaborate, but
would like server stats and version control that sharepoint services
provides. Not to much to ask I think. This is getting confusing and
entangled. Life was simple until I decided to add .Net Framework 1.1 to the
development environment. Could someone set me straight on this?

Yes, I know I should be moving to 2003, but next on the list will be
learning ADO.Net and ASP.Net.
