How Do I Use the ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool to Configure ASP.NET

In this video Chris Pels shows how to use the ASP.NET IIS Registration Tool to configure ASP.NET. First, see how file extensions are mapped to ASP.NET in the IIS Manager on a global and web-site-by-web site basis. These script maps provide the basis for configuring individual ASP.NET applications to run under a specific version of the .NET Framework. Next, see how aspnet_regiis.exe, the IIS Registration Tool command line utility, is specific to each version of the .NET Framework and how it can be used for a variety of tasks like determining what versions of ASP.NET are installed on a computer and what ASP.NET applications are mapped to that version. Then, learn how install and uninstall ASP.NET on a computer using the registration tool. Also learn how to use the registration tool to install, uninstall, or update multiple ASP.NET applications for a specific version of the .NET Framework. For example, see how to install ASP.NET 2.0 and update script mappings for multiple ASP.NET applications that previously used ASP.NET 1.1. Lastly, see how to configure a single web site to run a specific version of ASP.NET.

Excellent video! I found it very useful! I did not know what the IISReg tool was used for?. Though I have a question: I read something about web application pools. Does this means that this is another way to configure this pools (in order to configure multiple websites with multiple .NET framework versions (side-by-side))?

Good video although I found that this doesn't work out the same for IIS 7 (Vista Version). It works fine for IIS 5.0 and IIS 6.0.

Nice video Chris. Really helpful if you use Server 2003 x64, where you do not have an "ASP.NET" tab on for your websites and virtual directories.

Found this video very useful. The one item I needed to know was how to figure out the IIS path to a specific application to link an application to its appropriate framework version. This video clearly demonstrates how to find that information using the -lk switch. The other item I found helpful was the discussion on the application mappings. Chris thank you for putting this presentation together for us.
