Granting Permissions to Manage Virtual Directories

[Guest]

Hello,

I'd like to connect to a remote server and add/configure virtual directories
in IIS using the Computer Management MMC snap-in.

Are there certain [minimum] permissions that my systems administrator could
assign my Windows domain account to accomplish this without giving me
Administrator privileges on the box?

Thank you.

You really should ask in one of the inetserver newsgroups
and when doing so indicate what version of IIS.
Prior to IIS 6 it was possible to name IIS admins on a per
website basis - but I am unsure whether you speak of a
web or a site, and also whether one should allow or if it is
possible to use remote connection with the mgmt tools for
such a limited "sub-admin" role.
