Normalfilename:

“filename.html”

Wrongfilename:

” filename.html”

You cannot really name a file like that with a windows machine. But Linux and Unix systems like Mac OS X allow this.

After renaming the file to a normal Windows filename, the customer you download the file again.

Btw you can simple rename the file with powershell

Rename-Item " filename.html" "newfilename.html"

We also added support for:

• .NET Framework 4
• ASP.NET MVC 2.0
• Silverlight 4
• New Versions of Persits AspMail, AspPDF, AspJPEG

Under Windows Server 2008 you could install Roles and Features with the command OCSETUP. Since we use Windows Server 2008 R2 Microsoft used the tool called DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool).

For checking availible Server roles type:

Dism /online /get-features /format:table

To enable a Feature or a Role, in this case the DNS Server Role, you just type:

Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:DNS-Server-Core-Role

To enable IIS 6.0 in Windows Server 2003 or IIS7 in Windows Vista RTM with the appropriate MIME Types, add:

• .xap     application/x-silverlight-app
• .xaml    application/xaml+xml
• .xbap    application/x-ms-xbap

Adding MIME Types by a simple VB script:

• Here is a VBS script you could run to enable each of these types:


Const ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE = 2
'
if WScript.Arguments.Count < 2 then
WScript.Echo "Usage: " + WScript.ScriptName + " extension mimetype"
WScript.Quit
end if
'
'Get the mimemap object.
Set MimeMapObj = GetObject("IIS://LocalHost/MimeMap")
'
'Get the mappings from the MimeMap property.
aMimeMap = MimeMapObj.GetEx("MimeMap")
'
' Add a new mapping.
i = UBound(aMimeMap) + 1
Redim Preserve aMimeMap(i)
Set aMimeMap(i) = CreateObject("MimeMap")
aMimeMap(i).Extension = WScript.Arguments(0)
aMimeMap(i).MimeType = WScript.Arguments(1)
MimeMapObj.PutEx ADS_PROPERTY_UPDATE, "MimeMap", aMimeMap
MimeMapObj.SetInfo
'
WScript.Echo "MimeMap successfully added: "
WScript.Echo " Extension: " + WScript.Arguments(0)
WScript.Echo " Type: " + WScript.Arguments(1)

• If you copy and paste the code above into a VBS file and save it as ADDMIMETYPE.VBS the syntax to add each type would be:

ADDMIMETYPE.VBS .xap application/x-silverlight-app ADDMIMETYPE.VBS .xaml application/xaml+xmlADDMIMETYPE.VBS .xbap application/x-ms-xbap

or you could add it very simple over the IIS Manager.

Normally the IUSR and IWAM password are set automatically and unknown. But if you import the metabase on another you have to change the passwords of these two users (IUSR_<local machine name> and IWAM_<local machine name>).

• First you have to update the adsutil.vbs script (localdiskdrive:\Inetpub\AdminScripts). You have to replace all the “”IsSecureProperty = True” with “”IsSecureProperty = False” otherwise the command would not show the real password.
• Now you can run the following commands to get the password of these users

Get the IUSR password:

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript adsutil.vbs get w3svc/anonymoususerpass

return:

anonymoususerpass : (STRING) "password"

Get the IWAM password:

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript adsutil.vbs get w3svc/wamuserpass

return:

wamuserpass : (STRING) "password"

• you also can set the passwords for those accounts in the metabase

Set the IUSR password:

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript adsutil.vbs set w3svc/anonymoususerpass "password"

Set the IWAM password:

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript adsutil.vbs set w3svc/wamuserpass "password"

• after you change the passwords, you should sync the password from IIS with Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) and component services with the following command

sync MTS:

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript.exe synciwam.vbs -v

If you are using host headers to resolve the websites, then you might have seen the following issue with NTLM authenticated sites on IE 8. When you access the websites on a machine other than the one where it is hosted, you will be able to get to the sites.
Once you RDP onto the server and try to connect to the website, it will prompt for your windows credentials and will get an access denied message. This problem occurs because Windows includes a loopback check security feature that helps prevent reflection attacks on your computer(Probably some kind of security change has been made in IE8 related to this feature). Therefore, authentication fails if the FQDN or the custom host header that you use does not match the local computer name.

Resolution: Disable the loopback check

• Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
• In Registry Editor, locate and then click the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
• Right-click Lsa, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
• Type DisableLoopbackCheck, and then press ENTER.
• Right-click DisableLoopbackCheck, and then click Modify.
• In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.

Quit Registry Editor, and then restart your computer.
