Microsoft IIS v7 Details Emerge

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the noting-the-future dept.

daria42 writes "According to several .NET and Longhorn bloggers, the next version of Microsoft's IIS web server will integrate ASP.NET and turn many core features into optional modules in order to provide a smaller security footprint for hackers to attack. In addition, the software's admin tool has been completely revamped, and will allow Web-based remote administration utilising SSL."

    Microsoft's only plan is to sell the additional modules. IIS has been free for wayyy too long. You will get the 'basic' IIS for free, and then down the road, you will buy the SSL module, or buy the PHP module..

    Difinitely is definitely spelled 'definitely', not defiantly spelled 'definately'.
