How to use IIS Administrators

The IIS administrator is a trusted network administrator. When you encounter any problems, you will think of them. As a good IIS administrator, you need to have a lot of knowledge. Here are some suggestions for the IIS administrator.

1. custom error page

Although the custom error page is simple, only a few IIS administrators can use it effectively. The IIS administrator can map the HTTP Error information to an absolute URL or a file on the server in MMC. For more details, see here.

If you think this is too troublesome, want a simpler method, or you want developers to define their own error pages, and do not want them to have the permission to use MMC, you can use a tool like Customer Error.

2. meteBase Research

If you think Apache is powerful because it has a configuration file, you should check how powerful meteBase is in IIS. With meteBase, the IIS administrator can complete all work on IIS, such as creating a virtual directory, stopping, starting, or pausing a Web site, and creating, deleting, disabling, or enabling an application.

Microsoft provides meteEdit, a visualization tool, to help you read and write meteBase. You can download the latest version here. To make better use of meteBase, you should try the command line interface-IIS Administration (adsutil for short. vbs. You can find it in the C: \ inetpub \ admins or % SystemRoot % \ system32 \ inetsrv \ adminsamples directory.

Note: meteBase is very important for the normal operation of the Web site. Do not destroy it. Remember: you must back up data before making any changes.

3. automatically corrected URL spelling errors

Apache advocates are always boasting about some of Apache's small functions, the coolest of which is "automatically correcting URL spelling errors". Now, IIS administrators can also play with these small functions, use URLSpellCheck to automatically correct URL spelling errors.
