Configure Impersonation Authentication in IIS8 for MVC Application

Impersonation is when ASP.NET executes code in the context of an authenticated and authorized client. By default, ASP.NET does not use impersonation and instead executes all code using the same user account as the ASP.NET process, which is typically the ASPNET account. There are 5 below steps by which we can establish Impersonation configuration in our secured application environment. 1.)    Creation of Application/Proxy user where Application is hosted. 2.)    Give appropriate access to the user. 3.)    Create Database Login user on database. 4.)    Authenticate User and provide credential on IIS. 5.)    Then Configure web.config on Application.

Metabase and IIS 6.0 Backup-Restore

Metabase (IIS 6.0) The metabase is a structure for storing Internet Information Server (IIS) configuration settings. It performs some of the same functions as the Windows system registry but is specific to Internet Information Server version 4.0. New keys and values have been added for finer and more flexible control of IIS. Like the registry, the metabase is organized in a hierarchical structure that mirrors the structure of your IIS installation. It is made up of nodes, keys, and subkeys. The main organization is by node, with each node in the metabase structure representing a site or directory. Beneath the nodes are keys that may contain one or more IIS configuration values called metabase properties. The metabase keys correspond to individual configuration elements of IIS; each key contains properties that affect the configuration of its associated directory or site. Many of the metabase parameters can be configured from the Internet Service Manager snap-in for the M
