This week we dig in deeper to IIS 7 (7.5) Shared Configuration. If you are already familiar with IIS Shared Config, or have seen last week’s lesson, than this will cover more of the internals. This week is a bit different in that Scott discovers a couple tricks while recording this video, so join with him on an adventure to learn more about this powerful feature in IIS. Advanced topics include the series issue with IIS backups and shared configuration, where the redirection meta information is saved, and how to work around the password issues when joining servers back to shared configuration after maintenance.

This is now the 4th week in a mini-series on web farms, and the 29th week of the entire series. You can view past and future weeks in the section below.
