Add the Web Server role to Windows Server 2008 This guide assumes that you have first installed Windows Server 2008 and configured it for Active Directory (AD) and setup a working DHCP server.

anyweb 480 Posted August 18, 2008 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 Part 2. Download and install Webdav for IIS 7 Note: If you are using Server 2008 R2 which has Webdav 7.5 then read this post first An important note from Microsoft:- Enabling WebDAV and modifying the requestFiltering section for the Web site increases the attack surface of the computer. Enable WebDAV only when required for management points and BITS-enabled distribution points. If you enable WebDAV on the default Web site, it is enabled for all applications using the default Web site. If you modify the requestFiltering section, it is modified for all Web sites on that server. The security best practice is to run Configuration Manager 2007 on a dedicated Web server. If you must run other applications on the Web server, use a custom Web site for Configuration Manager 2007. For more information, see Best Practices for Securing Site Systems. pick your version below Microsoft WebDAV Extension for IIS 7.0 (x64) or Microsoft WebDAV Extension for IIS 7.0 (x86) Accept the license agreement and let it install itself Once we have installed Webdav, we need to Enable WebDAV Publishing Using the IIS Manager. Enabling WebDAV Publishing Using the IIS Manager. Startup IIS Manager and in the Connections pane, expand the Sites node in the tree, then click the Default Web Site, then double-click the WebDAV Authoring Rules icon. Click enable webdav in the Actions pane on the right side Once you've clicked it it will then say 'Disable webdav' so be sure not to click there again, now we need to click the Add Authoring Rule task in the Actions pane and set your options as below That's it, you've now enabled WebDAV authoring in IIS 7. We will return to Webdav later in the guide, if you want to do them now then read Step 1 of this post or just continue with the below as we will get to it later anyway.

anyweb 480 Posted August 20, 2008 Report post Posted August 20, 2008 Part 3. Verify that you have Authorization and Authentication configured In IIS Manager, click on Default Web Site in the left pane, and choose the Authentication icon under IIS. in this example (default install of IIS 7 in Windows Server 2008) we can see the following Authentication types are installed Anonymous Authentication - Enabled ASP.NET Impersonation - Disabled Forms Authentication - Disabled We want to add Basic Authentication and Windows Authentication to proceed further. To do this Click on Server Manager and scroll down to Roles Summary. Click on Web Server (IIS) and scroll down to Role Services. In this example both Basic and Windows Authentication are not installed, so let's install them. click on Add role services in the actions pane to the right. scroll down to security and put a check mark in Basic and Windows Authentication, click next. confirm your selections and click install, once done you'll see a results screen At this point you can close the IIS server manager, restart the World Wide Web Publishing Service service (W3SVC) and go back into the IIS server manager, when you click on Default Web Site now and the Authentication icon, you should see the two new authentication methods added. Right click on Windows Authentication and choose Enable (Note: You can use Basic Authentication with WebDAV, but the WebDAV redirector will only use Basic Authentication with SSL connections, so we will not be using it here, I just installed it so that you were aware of it.) In IIS Manager, click the Default Web Site under the Sites node in the tree, Double-click the Authorization rules icon. NOTE: if (like me) you do not see the Authorization rules icon (feature) then go back into Server Manager, select Roles, Select Web Server (IIS), select Roles services and scroll down to Security, check if URL Authorization is installed, if it is not installed, click on Add role Services in the right pane and install it, then restart the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. The icon (feature) should now appear.... When the Authorization feature opens, make sure that an Allow rule is defined that includes the administrator account. IE: the default rule for IIS allowing access to All Users will include the administrator account. you can now test logging into your WebDav site using your administrator account by opening a command prompt and typing this net use * http://localhost/ after a few moments you should see a result like this C:\Users\Administrator>net use * http://localhost/Drive Z: is now connected to http://localhost/. The command completed successfully. If you don't see the above, for example if you get a an error like this "System error 67 has occurred." The network name cannot be found. then install the Desktop Experience Feature using the Add Features Wizard) reboot the server and try again. The reason we need the Desktop Experience feature installed in Server 2008 is because it will install the Webclient service which is required for this. Note: if you now get a new error which states System error 1920 has occurred. The file cannot be accessed by the system. Then you must open up IIS Manager, click on Default Web Site, and go into the WebDav Authoring Rules and add the current user you are attempting to do this as (eg: add user DOMAIN\user). See below screenshot. Tip: for a list of webdav errors and solutions to resolving them see this page so now we have mapped drive Z: to the WebDav site, using the administrator account and using the authorization rules we setup above, we have read/write/source acccess to the directory.

Guest itismike Posted March 20, 2009 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 Hi anyweb, We followed your guide to install and configure SCCM a few months ago. Now we are attempting to build another similar environment, but you've moved on! Is there any place I can look to find the original steps to configure things based on Server 2003 with IIS 6?

anyweb 480 Posted March 20, 2009 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 try this link, does it help ? cheers anyweb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest itismike Posted March 20, 2009 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 It does! Thank you for the immediate reply! Are the other steps for the rest of the 2003 SCCM configuration available somewhere or do you just recommend extrapolating the steps from the 2008 guides?

anyweb 480 Posted March 20, 2009 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 just use the 2008 guides i have, it should be pretty much the same,. if you run into any problems raise a new post here and we'll deal with it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest itismike Posted March 20, 2009 Report post Posted March 20, 2009 Still running into problems following the 2008 guides. I remember we created accounts for SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_xxx. Was that covered in the 2003 guide but not in the 2008 guide? Isn't it still necessary?

anyweb 480 Posted March 25, 2009 Report post Posted March 25, 2009 is your firewall disabled or enabled ? have you left out any steps at all ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheProfessor 0 Posted March 26, 2009 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 Yes sir. I verified that the firewall was off and that your steps were followed precisely. I also took a look at the Micrsoft technet articles. Basically the same thing as your instructions. I'm really stuck at this point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheProfessor 0 Posted March 26, 2009 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 I am running windows server 2008. I could not find this driver in device manager after enabling the show hidden devices. Also in our DC we do not have DFS installed or enabled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anyweb 480 Posted March 26, 2009 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 ok then, is your server an all in one ? ie, is DNS, DHCP and AD all installed on it ? i need more info... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheProfessor 0 Posted March 26, 2009 Report post Posted March 26, 2009 No. It is a member server in a domain. Our DC is a seperate box running the AD, DNS, DHCP. I even tried looking and following this article for MS http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/cc431377.aspx to see if any changes would occur. Again same msg. No firewall is enabled, IIS Service works and can connect via web browser and see the nice green welcome screen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtalala 0 Posted April 2, 2009 Report post Posted April 2, 2009 Hi Anyweb and professor I had the same problem I solved this with the following maybe this also helps you If you are using Windows Server 2008, you need to install the Desktop Experience feature. To do so, use the following steps: Start the Windows Server Manager. In the tree view, highlight the Features node. In the details pane, click Add Features. In the Add Features Wizard, check the Desktop Experience box, and then click Next. Click Install. When the Add Features Wizard has finished, click Close. Click Yes when promoted to restart the computer Regards, J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anyweb 480 Posted April 2, 2009 Report post Posted April 2, 2009 that is totally weird, on all the server 2008's i setup with SCCM i've never enabled that feature, I hope to get a definitive answer to this problem soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
