Is there an MS IIS forum? IIS fails to start after installing security patch (MS08-006)
I can't find a specific IIS forum at MSDN. This issue isn't specifically related to ASP.NET or .NET.After I installed the recent security patches, my IIS cannot be started. I think MS08-006 is causing the problems, but I'm unable to confirm this right now. The error in the event log is "“The IIS Admin service terminated with service-specific error 2147549183 (0×8000FFFF).”SC Query returns this:C:\>sc query IISAdminSERVICE_NAME: IISAdmin TYPE : 20 WIN32_SHARE_PROCESS STATE : 1 STOPPED (NOT_STOPPABLE,NOT_P...

IIS windows intergrated security and .NET access
One thing I've really wanted w/ windows passthrough auth is for the authenticated user object to be available to .NET w/o IIS making a decision to accept or deny. In other words, I want the web request to undergo the challenge/response by IIS, but the for IIS to hand that result over to .NET to manage if desired. This would allow .NET to programmatically determine what to do should the challenge/response fail, and also allow it to make a decision about users who come from certain domains as opposed to others -- those in domain get higher rights than those w/o, for example In order to ...

Accessing IIS integrated security website from .NET application?
So I have an application on webserver1 using FORMS authentication (allows anonymous access to login page so running under ASPNET account). In this application there are links to a website on webserver2 that does not allow anonymous access and requires windows integrated security. So basically when you click on a link from the application to webserver2 an authentication popup window appears.  What I'd like to do is pass the authentication information from my application (on webserver1) to webserver2 so that the page I'm calling (via a simply linkbutton) does not produce an ...

VS2008 Fails to Publish and removes security/sharing from subfolders
I've been using VS2005 for a few years now with almost no problems.  I have multiple development sites on Server2003, IIS6.  I publish those to the "live" sites on the same server, different folder.  As I said, been doing that successfully with no problems on a weekly basis for a few years. I upgraded to VS2008 this week in order to start playing with Ajax.  Have a small, simple Intranet site, so I decided to start with it.  Took the development site, upgraded it to VS2008, made minor text changes.  I'm able to access, view, interact with...

Visual Studio (.NET 2003) fails to open WebApplications after restarting IIS
Hi:I had to stop my IIS for a few hours. When I restarted it and tried to open a web application in visual studio, the IDE went into a terminal state < Contacting Server to open web project "WebApplicationDoesNotOpens"... >. I had to end the hung IDE using task manager. This happens everytime I restart my IIS :(, and I am tired of restarting the web server, sometimes I even have to re-install IIS and go through the entire process ending with registering asp with aspnet_regiis. Its tiresome :(...Thoughts? Any advice would be appreciated...Thanks in advance!kremlins Hi, &nbs...

c# .net web service deployment
Hi all, I've written a web service in C# ..NET and i have deployed this project by including windows installer web project. Everything runs fine on the remote machine but i wanted to know how i could include in the setup a way to change the IIS directory security settings to anonymous access.

Publish fails if publishing to an existing folder
Hello,  I am kind of concerned with the way I publish my asp.net project.

.Net Framework Code Access Security
I built a c# .Net 2.0 based user control that I run as an ActiveX control in IE7.  It works fine except for code access security issues ("Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, ......' failed).  To get around the code access security issues, I created a code group within the Machine All_Code group with the Publisher membership conditions based on a valid certificate (which my assembly has) and granted that code group the "Everything" permission set.  Even though my code group is m...
