Featured Customer Reviews  Great Book,
May 20, 2008Best book out there for IIS 6,
May 14, 2008 As an ASP .Net developer, I've had to deploy to IIS too many times to count. Invariably, something goes wrong. This book will make you a master at IIS 6. It goes into very advanced details such as the metabase (which I haven't seen any other book do). It also gives a quick historical lesson on IIS which really helps to place IIS 6 in context and gives insight to why things were done a certain way. The author starts from the foundation and branches out from there. Without a doubt, the best book on IIS 6 available. Thumbs Up,
May 13, 2007 This is one of the best admin books I have read. It is written well and is easy to understand. It is a good idea to have IIS installed on a computer so the reader can work through the examples. If you write software, not for you,

I am a software application developer who moonlights as a manufacturing engineer, sometimes setting up punch presses. I earn my living by making things work. Mr. Tulloch's book is about how to keep things from working. Although he calls it "security" what he really means is "job security" in the sense that we used to say, "Nobody gets fired for buying from IBM." Only today plenty of people do get fired for doing just that.
Mr. Tulloch is delighted that IIS is delivered in "lockdown mode" while I am angry. That means people who operate as Mr. Tulloch recommends have little to do. Little can go wrong, because almost nothing can work. People like me have to figure out what is keeping their software from working and wheedle people like Mr. Tulloch to ease up.
Mr. Tulloch repeatedly says making that software actually work is "beyond the scope" of his book. Mr. Tulloch's approach is driving the United States and other industrial democracies into bankruptcy and making opportunities for people in Southeast Asia and Eastern Europe who are still focused on making things work.
Excellent Resource,
August 19, 2005 We bought this book for our Systems Administrator who had limited IIS experience. After a few days he had the website and ftp site humming. Worth a look for the novice through to the expert.
