Server administrators and non-administrators can configure settings for applications in IIS Manager. Non-administrators must be granted permission to an application and provided with logon details by a server administrator. Then the user can provide credentials to connect to that application and then can configure settings for the application.

Note

Server administrators have access to all sites and applications on the Web server. Non-administrators who connect to a site have access to delegated features in that site and any applications within that site.

To navigate to an application in IIS Manager

  1. Open IIS Manager. For information about opening IIS Manager, see Open IIS Manager (IIS 7).

  2. In the Connections pane:

    • If you are a server administrator, expand the Sites node. Expand the site that contains the application that you want to manage, and then click the application in the tree.

    • If you are a non-administrator who has permission to connect to a site, use the tools in the Connections pane to connect to the site that contains the application that you want to manage. Expand the site in the tree, and then click the application.

    • If you are a non-administrator who has permission to connect to an application, use the tools in the Connections pane to connect to the application that you want to manage. Then click the application in the tree.

  3. On the application Home page, double-click a feature to configure the feature for the application.
