Explanation of basic IIS server knowledge and logs

There are many things worth learning about IIS server. Here we mainly introduce some knowledge about IIS server. First, let's get to know about ISS. IIS is short for Internet Information Server.

It is a Server promoted by Microsoft. The latest version is IIS 5 included in Windows2000. IIS is fully integrated with the initwnserver. Therefore, you can use Windows NT Server and NTFSNT File System, NT File System) built-in security features, build a powerful, flexible and secure Internet and Intranet site.

IIS server supports HTTPHypertext Transfer Protocol, Hypertext Transfer Protocol), FTPFile Transfer Protocol, File Transfer Protocol) and SMTP Protocol. IIS can be highly expanded by Using CGI and ISAPI.

IIS servers that store hundreds of sites can improve LOG performance by enabling centralized binary logs. Centralized binary logs allow the IIS server to Write activity information of all Web sites to one log file.

In this way, the manageability and scalability of the IIS logging process are greatly improved by reducing the number of log files that need to be stored and analyzed one by one. For more information about Centralized Binary logs, see the Microsoft TechNet topic Centralized Binary Logging on the http://www.microsoft.com/technet... dard/log_binary.asp in English ).

When IIS logs are stored on the IIS server by default, only the server administrator has the right to access them. If the folder or owner of the log file is not in the Local Administrators Group, the HTTP. sys-IIS 6.0 kernel-mode driver will publish an error to the NT Event Log.

This error indicates that the folder or file owner is not in the "Local Administrators" group, and the log of this site will temporarily expire until its owner is added to the "Local Administrators" group, or the existing folder or file is deleted.
