You can print all the variables in $_SERVER with

<?php
echo '<pre>';
print_r($_SERVER);
echo '</pre>';
?>

for both servers, and print/compare the output.
It's easier than the output of phpinfo() :)

I also remember I ended up doing something like:

<?php // config.inc.php
if (stristr(php_sapi_name(), 'apache') {
  $DOCUMENT_ROOT = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
  $OTHER_VARS = $_SERVER['OTHER_VARS'];
} else { // IIS
  $DOCUMENT_ROOT = $_SERVER['ROOT_DIRECTORY']; // probably wrong
  $OTHER_VARS = $_SERVER['EXTRA_VARS'];
}
?>

and then require that file (which had more things in it) and using

$DOCUMENT_ROOT (instead of $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'])

for scripts running on apache or IIS.
