Allow an IIS Manager User Account to Connect to a Site or an Application (IIS 7)

  • Artigo

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista

Allow an IIS Manager user to connect to a site or an application when you want to let the user configure delegated features in that site or application in IIS Manager.

IIS Manager user credentials consist of a user name and password pair that are created in IIS Manager and are used exclusively for IIS Manager to access the IIS configuration files. Before allowing an IIS Manager user to connect to a site or an application, you must first add the IIS Manager user account at the server level in IIS Manager. For more information about how to add IIS Manager users, see Create an IIS Manager User Account (IIS 7).

Note

For IIS Manager users to connect to sites and applications for which you grant permission, you must configure the management service to accept connections from users who have IIS Manager credentials. For more information about how to configure the management service, see Configuring the Management Service in IIS 7.

Prerequisites
