Grammar
Should I use is or are
Hello there
Can someone please explain me one small confusing sentence.
Let's say I'm writing a small email to a customer and it goes like this:
Bob - IIS and FTP is/are configured.
What should I use? I feel more comfortable with are due to I'm talking about two things ISS and FTP. Am right? If I am right do I use are all the time when I'm talking about two things? If so, maybe few examples would be great.
Thank you
Luna

You are right, and always about two things — unless they are conceived as one, as in 'Bread and butter is my favorite snack.'

It's been driving me crazy for the last 7 hours.
