IIS 6.0





Nearly 100% completely re-written
Stack Overrun detection
Components added/removed via Add or
Remove Programs in Control Panel
IIS Lockdown Tool built-in and called
‘Web Service Extensions’
.NET Passport Integration
IIS 6.0 – WWW Service


Includes health monitoring, fault-tolerance
and error detection
Request Processing


IIS 5.0 has a single process (inetinfo) that
farms out requests to out-of-process
applications (dllhost’s)
IIS 6.0 splits this functionality across two new
components:



HTTP.SYS (kernel-mode listener)
WWW Service Administration and Monitoring (usermode admin tool)
On a test server w/8CPUs, IIS 6.0 showed a 100%
performance gain over IIS 5.0 on the same
hardware
IIS 6.0 – WWW Service

Web Administration Service (WAS)



Part of core WWW Service
Handles configuration changes and process
management
 Loads configuration from IIS metabase on startup
Responsible for life cycle of worker processes
 When to start
 When to recycle
 When to restart
IIS 6.0 – HTTP.SYS/KM Queuing

Uses Worker Processes and Application Pools



Worker process executable (w3wp.exe) loads
WWW service DLL into its working set to
perform loading/unloading of ISAPI modules
and for authorization and authentication
HTTP.sys listens for requests and routes them
to the appropriate application pool queue
Application Pool is nothing more than an
HTTP.sys queue and at least one worker
process. Application pools serve requests for a
unique Web application
IIS 6.0 – HTTP.SYS/KM Queuing



Prevents third-party code from crashing
IIS
Failed worker processes automatically
restarted
There may be a temporary disruption in
the processing of a request, but the
request will be processed, and end-user
experience is preserved
IIS 6.0 – Worker Process Isolation



Isolation mode introduced in IIS 4.0
No more in-process applications
Admins create Application Pools




Set of web applications that share one or
more worker processes
Application pools separated by process
boundaries
Can move running applications between
application pools
Application Pool ≈ Namespace Group
IIS 6.0 – Worker Process Isolation







Prevents worker process from harming IIS
Eliminates lots of reboots
Enables live debugging/development
Self-healing (checks for faults, leaks, hangs,
etc.)
Treats ‘applications’ as unit of administration
Patches can be applied without interruption in
service
IIS 5.0 Isolation Mode


Backward compatibility
Same as IIS 5.0, but shoehorns into IIS 6.0

IIS 6.0 – FTP Service

FTP User Isolation




Like a ‘home directory’ for FTP users
Isolates their folder from other users’
folders
User’s top-level folder appears as root of
FTP
Configurable PASV Port Range

PASV requires add’l connection (formerly
ephemeral port but now configurable)
IIS 6.0 – Security







Ships in locked down state – only static
content can be served
New lower privilege service account (low
privilege user context)
ASP more secure (always run as a lowprivileged account – anonymous user)
Auto-rejects requests for unknown file
extensions
More aggressive timeouts, limits on uploads,
etc. to further harden against attacks
Buffer overflow protection
File verification before passing file requests to
request handler (e.g., ISAPI extension)
IIS 6.0 – Metabase

XML format






Can be edited while IIS is running
Improved backup/restore
Extensible schema
Backward compatible with metabase APIs
and ADSI
Smaller footprint, faster reading
Configuration rollback
IIS 6.0 – Command Line Tools








iisweb.vbs: Create, delete, start, stop, and list Web sites
iisftp.vbs: Create, delete, start, stop, and list FTP sites

one client send call: HSE_REQ_VECTOR_SEND (call







Worker process recycling (tell IIS to recycle
process): HSE_REQ_REPORT_UNHEALTHY
Create dynamic request response and serve from
kernel: DYNAMIC CACHING (FLAG)
Identify final send in response to reduce
kernel/user transitions: FINAL SEND (FLAG)
ISAPI support for custom errors
Improved ISAPI Unicode support
COM+ services in ASP
IIS 6.0 - Performance



20,000 pooled applications in IIS6 vs <
3,000 in IIS5
1,000 isolated apps on a single
machine, each with its own security
identity on IIS6 vs maximum of 100 on

Configure DNS on PDC
Upgrade PDC to Windows Server 2003
Prevent PDC Locator Overload
Synchronize FRS with directory replication master
Verify AD configuration and functionality
Add additional DCs to Windows 2003 Domain
Domain at Windows 2003 Functional
Level
Upgrading from NT 4.0

Configure DNS on PDC

Two methods:
 Install and configure DNS on PDC. Do this if:




The domain that you are upgrading is the root domain
of the Windows 2003 forest.
The domain is going to exist in your system for a long
period of time.
The domain must maintain its own DNS operations.
Reference a DNS server in the parent domain. Do
this if you have already configured DNS for Active
Directory in your environment, and the domain
that you are upgrading is a temporary domain.
Upgrading from NT 4.0

Upgrade PDC to Windows 2003


Use winnt32.exe
NT4 SAM copied into AD
After AD overhead is added, this could result
in too much data being replicated to NT4
BDCs in the domain.
 As long as you have NT4 BDCs, limit AD to
fewer than 40,000 objects

Upgrading from NT 4.0

Prevent PDC Locator Overload


Feature for NT domains with a lot of Windows 2000 and
Windows 2003 servers and XP Pro clients
Windows 2003 DCs may not be able to authenticate all
clients initially




If your domain has Win2000/XP clients, configure
Windows 2003 DC to emulate Windows NT to enable
these clients to authenticate.
Upgrading clients in the domain without upgrading more
than one DC eliminates load balancing and fault
tolerance on the DC.
Even if your domain includes only a few Windows 2000
or Windows 2003 clients, it is best to configure the
Windows 2003 domain controller to emulate NT4.
Configure DC to emulate NT4 DC after installing
Windows 2003 but before running DCPromo.
Upgrading from NT 4.0

Synchronize FRS with directory
replication master

After upgrading the NT4 PDC to Windows
2003, configure a script file to copy the
files in the Sysvol folder to the BDC that
provides export services to other NT4 BDCs
in your domain.
Upgrading from NT 4.0

Verify AD configuration & functionality



Examine the event log on the BDCs for events that
confirm that objects that were created after you
completed the upgrade process replicated to the BDCs.
Event ID 5715 in the System event log indicates that the
BDCs synchronized with the Windows 2003 DC.
Make sure you can:
 Add users to the domain
 Log on to the domain from a client workstation
 Replicate changes throughout the environment
 Run services in the domain
Upgrading from NT 4.0

Add additional DCs to Windows 2003
Domain

Do this for redundancy:
Install Active Directory on a Windows 2003
member server
 Upgrade Windows NT 4.0 BDCs

Upgrading from Windows 2000


In-Place Upgrade or DCPromo
(promote) Windows 2003 member
server
ADPrep (copies the files 409.csv and
dcpromo.csv from the i386 directory to
the local computer to prepare the AD
forest and domain)

Upgrading from Windows 2000

Install AD on a Windows 2003 member server



Complete upgrade of first domain
Upgrade remaining domains


Wait for replication to complete
Run ADPrep /domainprep in other domains first
Raise forest and domain functional levels


After upgrade, forest is at Windows 2000 functional
level
If all Windows 2000 domains are in native mode,
domain functional level is automatically raised to
Windows 2000 native after you upgrade the first
DC to Windows 2003.

XML Web Services
Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) used to expose
useful web services to users
 Web Services Description Language (WSDL) provides
web services with a way to describe themselves
 Universal Discovery Description & Integration (UDDI)
used to register web services so users can find them
You create web-based applications where you define an
XML Web service as a software service exposed on the
Web through SOAP, describe it with a WSDL file, and
register it in UDDI.
XML/SOAP/WSDL/UDDI all Industry Standards, defined
by W3C
