I have just upgraded my W2K/IIS5.1 setup to W2K3/IIS6. Using host headers for a couple of websites on one IP. No probs. All is well. I have heard that IIS6 includes the "URL Scan" functionality that I was using for my IIS5.1 setup. Where do I go to adjust the parameters? Thanks, -Frank >> Stay informed about: Newbie to IIS 6

The file that contains the urlscan settings is in : C:\winnt (or windows)\system32\inetsrv\urlscan\usrlscan.ini remeber changes to this file will only take place after you restart your iis service.

I want to prevent recursion of directories for one thing (i.e ..\..\..\) and other malicious hacking attempts using SEARCH and other key verbs. As I said, like URL scan used to do. Also disallow execution of files like .bat ..cmd, etc. -Frank "doug" <anonymous.TakeThisOut@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:087001c49022$9ada92c0$a401280a@phx.gbl... > If you tell us exactly what you want to do, we can > probably help. > > doug >>-----Original Message----- >>I have just upgraded my W2K/IIS5.1 setup to W2K3/IIS6. > Using host headers >>for a couple of websites on one IP.

IIS 6.0 provides some of the same functionality as URLScan and the IIS Lockdown tool. IIS 6 already automatically disallows any application extension that isn't explicitly granted, the IUSR account is heavily restricted, etc. However, I still us URLScan for things like restricting extensions, restricting http verbs, rejecting URLs with certain characters, and for masking the server signature.

Thank you David! I knew reports I read in this news group about how "It's all built in now" was probably too good to be true! Can I use the same version/config of URL scan that I was using with IIS5.1? Thanks!

I'm guessing so. I used 2.5 on both IIS 5.0 and IIS 6.0 "Frankster" <Frank DeleteThis @REMOVEALLCAPSitcreek.com> wrote in message news:lcWdnYVEJ_EajKrcRVn-hw@giganews.com... > Thank you David!

Why not visit the webcast "URLScan 2.5 and IIS 6.0" <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=28757" target="_blank">http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=28757</a> and find out? It's running live today (Thursday September 2, 2004) at 12:30 pm PDT, and I believe it will also be available several hours afterwards as an "on demand" webcast.
