Developing Administration Extensions

You can add your custom DCOM interfaces to Internet Information Services (IIS) and make these interfaces available to other programs during IIS operation. The IADMEXT interface enables you to specify your interfaces' CLSIDs to the IISADMIN module, which then stores references to them in the metabase. Custom interfaces to extend inter-computer replication, described in the Extending IIS Replication Services topic, are examples of interfaces registered with IIS using the Custom Extensions Interface.

This section contains:

• Administration Extensions Overview: Describes how your administration extensions works with IIS.
• Administration Extension Development Goals: Provides details about how administration extensions are implemented.
