Product Description Microsoft¿s Internet Information Server 6 is an Internet server program that works with the Windows Server 2003 operating system. IIS is Microsoft¿s answer in the Internet server market to Apache, the open source and #1 Internet server in use. In the US 9.7 million servers run IIS (28 percent of the market) powering 5.3 million .com domains. Delivered as a fee add-on for the Windows 2003 Server, IIS 6 is a major upgrade from version 5 with increased security, better .NET programming integration, and stronger abilities to work with non-Microsoft languages and servers. Companies using IIS Server as part of their backend systems include: Krispy Kreme, AT&T, Home Shopping Network, Rolling Stone.com, plus many others.
Featured Customer Reviews  Excellent, to the point guide for understanding IIS 6.0,
August 08, 2004
Cheap, light, handy, almost 350 pages, presented very clearly and concisely. Covers all or more then all details about IIS 6.0 that any windows 2003 administrator would need to know. Not bad, but no homerun,
February 26, 2004This installment in the series is a decent and concise guide to IIS 6.0. It shines when going over the security differences between IIS 6.0 and 5.0/4.0 and when explaining the new processing model used in IIS 6.0. My major complaint is that the book breaks its own rules. Too often the author provides information on technical aspects of IIS that existed in older versions of the product that an IIS admin will likely know. He could have used this space to elaborate on products changes instead of skimping on the details and using space constraints as the excuse. Most of the information presented in this book is widely available on the Internet, but this book serves as a handy guide to IIS 6.0. Upon reading it and applying your existing experience you should be conversant in the new technologies and benefits of this exciting change in Microsoft's approach to web servers. But be aware that the book's necessary lack of depth will eventually lead you to seek out more comprehensive works.
