Information]
IIS Manager Feedback module: This tool allows customers using IIS Manager to
submit their feedback and suggestions.
"One of the key features with IIS7 hosting is the ability to delegate website
configurations to users." said Takeshi Eto, VP Marketing at DiscountASP.NET.
"Since our goal is to provide our customers with maximum control over their
hosting environment, we chose to implement IIS feature delegation on our Windows
2008 shared hosting platform."
With the launch of Windows 2008 and Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0,
Microsoft introduced IIS Manager, a new IIS administration tool which provides
end users with a familiar user interface to remotely manage IIS7 server
configurations. Using IIS Manager, DiscountASP.NET customers can view settings
and manipulate their web.config files for features that have been delegated to
them.
"With the introduction of additional toolsets available to manipulate the
web.config file, there is also increased possibility of accidentally overwriting
the web.config file. We wanted to address this issue and by taking advantage of
the IIS Manager extensibility model, we developed the web.config backup/restore
tool." added Takeshi Eto.
The new IIS Manager UI extensions are launched as a public beta to get feedback
from customers. To facilitate feedback submission, an IIS Manager Feedback
module was introduced, where customers can send feedback and suggestions
directly to DiscountASP.NET from within IIS Manager.
