Author IIS 4 won't let go of port 443

I'm running a Windows 2000 server with both IIS 4 and Apache 2. They
are using separate IP addresses and will co-exist peacefully so long as
the Apache service starts before the WWW Publishing service. However,
when the server is rebooted, it apparently loads the WWW service first,
which takes over port 443 (SSL) and prevents Apache from starting. I
don't need SSL under IIS, and I've tried to disable it using Microsoft
article 187498
(http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;187498) but it
still seems to take over. I can see the problem being resolved in
several ways:

1- Be able to really disable SSL under IIS
2- Change SSL port under IIS to something besides 443
3- Set up the WWW Publishing service to wait until Apache has started
before loading

I haven't been able to find a way to do any of the above. Any ideas?

IIRC this discribes the way(s) IIS implements the 's' of https ...
.... but even with all of these disabled, port 443 remains in use.

Shutdown the virtual server using SSL/HTTPS

Reading between the lines perhaps
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/171138/EN-US/
kind of tells you where and how

Adding Apache to the dependencies of ISS (!) should do this for you ...
