Deploy WCF REST 4.0 to XP IIS 5 ?

I am trying to deploy a simple "Hello World" .NET 4.0 REST-style WCF service on WinXP (IIS5). It works fine in Cassini.

I tried to adapt the info here to me:

but something is not clicking. Can anyone lend ideas or comments? Yes, I must stay with WinXP.

Thanks.

+1 A:

Have you considered self-hosting your service instead of trying to use IIS. That will probably be easier to do than use IIS.

I am now going down the route of creating a self-hosted service to get away from IIS. One thing I am not sure about is concurrent-use threading, however. IIS gives that for free - how can I be sure than n clients connecting to my console app will all get service without blocking?

@ScSub My experience with self-hosted WCF services is that you do not have to worry about it.
