IIS Virtual Directory Permissions
Hi All,
Currently setting up the IIS portion of a Certificate Services Instal .I have one serverthat will be running the IIS part (Server Core), that is remotely managd via a Win 10 client. I have created the Virtual Directory. As part of the guide I am follwoing it tells me to modify the permissions of the Virtual Directory by Selecting the directory and then click edit permissions under the actions pane. Under the actions pane I only get Basic Setings as an option.
What am i missing?
Cheers,
Paul

Hi,
The second option is the missing option I am looking for. If I create the default site on a server that hosta the iis (ith management tools), it is there. If I install the IIs feature on a server core and then use the rmeote managemen tools to configure, I dont get the Edit options. Do I have to mahualy set the IIS_IUSRS users on the virtual directory folder?

Yeap.
Look first in the local Groups whether that Group exist.
You can lookup with this DOS command:
NET LOCALGROUP

Hi,
Ok I am clearly missing something. I have manually added the IIS_IUSRS to the actual folder that the virtual directory points to. Now if i browse to the directory I get a permssions error, rather than an internal error. I still however dont get the edit permissions option within IIS. In the guide that I am folliwng it states that i need to add the: IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool. Is this cauisng the issue. Can I add it directly to the folder or does it specifically have to be added via IIS. If IIS how do i do this when I dont get the Edit permissions option.
Thanks for your help.

The second option in the Actios section is: Edit permissions
It opens the Folder Options dialog where one of the tabs is: Security
There you need one entry for this group: IIS_IUSRS
This entry needs at least: Read-Execute, List folder, Read
