IIS Tips & Tricks

Password Protection

Even though the Permissions stuff in IIS can sometimes be useful, an .htaccess file à la Apache can many times be more useful, not to mention easier to setup. And with a GUI to help you create the .htaccess file(s), it can't get much easier.

Introduce IISPassword, a freeware (thank God!) add-in for IIS which does just this. Looks like a useful add-in for any IIS server.
