Aloaha just released a stand alone Web Server with asp.net support. Just start the AloahaWeb.exe from https://dl.dropbox.com/u/20338532/neverdelete/WebServer/AloahaWeb.exe and give it a go.

The Aloaha Web Server is a free, light-weight and redistributable web server that can host ASP.NET 3.5, 3.0, 2.0 and 1.1 applications and static HTML sites. Whenever your customers need an alternative to IIS — Aloaha Web Server is the answer. Aloaha Web Server runs on all flavors of Windows XP including Windows XP Home, Windows Vista/7/8, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003/8 Server.

Aloaha created the web server for ASP.NET developers who want to create easily installable ASP.NET applications that do not require IIS .

By far the most important feature of the Aloaha Web Server is tje ability for Visual Studio developers to include this very compact, yet very powerful ASP.NET web server into their applications’ setup packages in just a matter of minutes.

Aloaha Web Server fully supports all ASP.NET features and is capable of running applications, as long as applications are not dependent on features specific to IIS, like IIS server variables.
