IIS 6 Administration

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.

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.

It has been a while since I've done much with IIS, but this book got me up to speed very quickly with the latest features of IIS 6. Mitch has a very lucid writing style that makes the material easy to read. If you are looking for a comprehensive tutorial on IIS, I would highly recommend this book.

Mitch does it again, every book he puts out just gets better and better and this book has it all! Having worked with IIS for over 4 years I didn't expect to lean much (we all know it all don't we?).... I was wrong! This book has ranges from Screen Cap's and diagrams to a full break down of the metabase, NTFS permissions needed and even the dreaded Front Page extensions. If you are new to IIS or have been around the block, this book is a definite must have for the work bench!
