I'm making a prototype webserver that needs to be able to run an executable on the server side. How do I get this to work? Do I need to set some permissions on the executable/directory? I'm stuck building this on a Windows XP machine with IIS 5.0.

You might be able to use Windows PowerShell. It has an XP version which can be used to script what you need to do.

You could use classic ASP, and "shell" out to run the executable.
(There are a myriad better ways, but ASP is built into IIS and may do what you want.)
