Administering Servers Remotely

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

When you run IIS on an intranet or the Internet, you can administer your server remotely by using the following tools:

  • IIS Manager. Use on your server to remotely connect to and administer an intranet server running IIS 5.x or IIS 6.0.

  • Terminal Services. Does not require you to install IIS Manager on the remote client computer because, after you are connected to the server that is running IIS, you can use IIS Manager on the Web server as if you are logged on locally.

  • Remote Administration (HTML) tool. Use to administer your IIS Web server from any Web browser on your intranet. This version of the tool runs only on servers running IIS 6.0.

  • Supported command-line scripts. Use the IIS-supported command-line scripts with the IIS WMI provider to remotely manage a server running IIS. Each command-line script supports the /s parameter, which you can use to specify the remote server against which you want to perform the command.

For information about enabling the Remote Administration (HTML) tool, and administering servers remotely through IIS Manager, Terminal Services, and the Remote Administration (HTML) tool, see Administering Servers Remotely in IIS 6.0.

For more information about remotely managing servers by using this tool, from the Help menu in the Remote Administration (HTML) tool, click Help Topics.
