Another possibility that I'm looking into, not only for managing IIS but the
rest of an NT server (Windows 2000, NT 4.0 is a pile of...), is using
CFEXECUTE and who knows what else to use the Resource Kit Tools. Yes this
means another $200 for anybody who wants to use the tags, but I think the
Resource Kit alone is well worth it and when you add on a full suite of CF
tools so you cando it remotely... well, you get the picture... It's a side
project of my own so it'll probably take awhile for it to be done, but I'l
lget it done sooner or later... I've gotten a few through the beta stages so
far (like managing users) and as I finish them and get done testing them,
I'll let the list know as well as try to get them in the Tag Gallery (these
will be my first so I don't know how hard/easy it is to get into the Tag
Gallery).
