Remote HTTP Administration on SBS?
Boy has it been that long since I posted? Sorry to those of you that graciously have subscribed to my feed. It's been a hectic month. Totally swamped here at work and in the process we decided to move to a new house. Anyone like to help with a few hundred boxes to unpack? Or perhaps a piano to be moved?
OK OK enough of the chatter. I was enjoying the article over at the new msterminalservices.org on Using the Terminal Services through Internet Information Server and suddenly realized that in SBS 2003 I had never really used this option. The remote web workplace is great but sometimes when you're working down and dirty with a server you might want to quickly get to it and the extra steps of RWW are a little tedious for the Engineer type but great for the small business owner.
Well why did I never use it before? It's not included with SBS 2003. In Windows Server 2003 the option is under the WWW options of IIS. It's named Remote Administration (HTTP). SBS doesn't include the option thus forcing you to use RWW or a terminal services (remote desktop) client.
I'll have to ping the author of the above article to let him know of this.
