Is there any way I can build a DotNetNuke site:

1) In Visual Studio 2010...

2) Without using IIS on my development machine and running the solution with the ASP.NET Development server?

If you want to bypass IIS I would recommend looking at the Start Kit download for DNN, though I don't know if that starter kit has been updated for VS2010 yet.

Keep in mind that running a site in the VS development server isn't very practical.  It can't be accessed except from the same physical system and it's not a functional way to develop a site that gets deployed elsewhere.  In fact, if you're not developing a module, you shouldn't even use VS.

We have to create a few custom pages (or a module) that need to be in the same application... so we need to work on this in VS.

We use the development server all the time while developing web sites. It's very useful. If you're just debugging, it doesn't matter if it's accessible from somewhere else. Code, debug, code, debug... then deploy to a public server. In addition, it stops us from having to install IIS on our development machines, which frees up a TON of resources. IIS is a total hog.

Sounds like we may end up building a VM to do all this... thanks anyway.
