Migrating a Web Server to IIS 5.0

Securing the Server

Once you’ve migrated Web content and applications to IIS 5.0, you need to configure security. This section discusses the basics of securing your Web server: migrating user and group accounts, migrating certificates, setting NTFS file and directory permissions, and setting IIS 5.0 permissions. For more in-depth information, see Security in this book, as well as the security topics in the IIS 5.0 and Windows 2000 Server online product documentation. For information about using FrontPage security with IIS 5.0, see Administering an ISP Installation in this book. For additional details on security, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/security/default.asp and http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.asp.
