What are the application protection modes available in IIS 5.0?

What are the application protection modes available in IIS 5.0?

Low application-protection: (In process) – All websites runs with inetinfo.exe process, you can’t track performance or identify the cause of app crash. Fastest execution, Lowest safety.

Medium application protection: (Out of process Pooled) – All website runs with Single DLLHost.exe (shared by all websites) and one inetinfo.exe. Issue causing Website identification is not possible as PID will point to a group ie. Out of process Pooled Applications. Faster execution than High isolation, Medium Safety.

High application protection: (Out of process) – All websites run with dedicated DLLHost.exe (Not shared and one for each website) and one inetinfo.exe process. We can identify the issue causing website using PID and match it with COM+ applications. Slower execution, Highest Safety.

Inetinfo.exe – It pass user request from http.sys to DLLHost.exe (Incase) and also manage and monitor the DLLHost.exe.

Configure ASP.NET 1.1 and 2.0 both on IIS 5.0 Windows 2000

Configure ASP.NET 1.1 and 2.0 both on IIS 5.0 Windows 2000

Total 3 Steps are there to perform:

1. Manually change the App Mappings to the appropriate version of aspnet_isapi.dll for every instance of it.
For example, change the following C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_ isapi.dll
to C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet _isapi.dll

2. Then : Create or Check following registry w/ regedt32
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Typelib\{A4CA8810-6E46-36FF-A048-B7FD564742F8}\2.0\0\win32]
"C:\\WINNT\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v2.0.50727\\AspNetMmcExt.tlb"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Typelib\{A4CA8810-6E46-36FF-A048-B7FD564742F8}\2.0\HELPDIR]
"C:\\WINNT\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v2.0.50727"

3. "aspnet_regiis -I -enable" (without quotes) from the appropriate .NET Framework folder. For example the folder for .NET framework 2.0 would be C:\Windows\Microsoft.net\Framework\v2.0.50727 and hence the command will be C:\Windows\Microsoft.net\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis -i -enable

You are done!
