What should the syntax be for the default web.config file?
I made some edits and I want to restore the old settings, but I cannot find the old file that I backed up.
I'm using the default permalink setting, nothing fancy.
Is the .htaccess file necessary anymore?
If you mean the wp-config.php file, try downloading a fresh copy of WP and extracting the wp-config-sample.php file

Just the web.config file. I didn't mess with the .php file.
Come to think of it, is it even neccessary?
There is no web.config file in WordPress. All of your site options are stored in your database.

Is a web.config file an IIS server issue? I only ask because of this:
"Is the .htaccess file necessary anymore? "
Should we assume you recently moved to (or have been using) a windows server?

Thanks for the help. I just started the blog (hosted with godaddy)and tried using permalinks, but began having all types of performance problems. When I changed the permalinks originally, I was given several lines of code to add the the web.config file. When I changed it back (to default) I didn't have the orignal syntax.
