On the Start menu, click Run.

In the Open box, type inetmgr and then click OK.

In IIS Manager, expand the local computer, right-click the Web Sites folder, click New, and then click Web Site.

The Web Site Creation Wizard is displayed.

In the Web Site Creation Wizard, click Next.

In the Description box, type a descriptive label for the site (this label is not what you will type the address bar of a browser), and then click Next.

Type or select the IP address (the default is All Unassigned), TCP port, and host header (for example, www.microsoft.contoso.com) for your site.

Important Note:

To ensure that user requests reach the correct Web site, you must distinguish each site on the server with at least one of three unique identifiers. These are a host header name, an IP address, or a TCP port number. The preferred way to identify multiple Web sites on a single server is to use unique host header names. To reach the site, users must enter the name/IP address pair that is listed for the site in the DNS server, or listed in the local HOSTS file. For more information about how to select unique identifiers, see Hosting Multiple Web Sites on a Single Server in the IIS 6.0 product documentation.

In the Path box, type or browse to the directory that contains the site content, and then click Next.

Select the check boxes for the permissions that you want to assign to users, and then click Finish.

By default, the Read and Run Scripts check boxes are selected. These permissions enable you to run ASP.NET pages for many common scenarios.

In IIS Manager, right-click node for the site that you want to configure, and then click Properties.

Click the Directory Security tab, and then in the Authentication and access control section, click Edit.

Select the check box for the authentication method or methods that you want to use for the site, and then click OK. By default, the Enable anonymous access and Windows Integrated Authentication check boxes are already selected.

In Windows Explorer, open the parent folder of the folder that contains the pages for the site. Right-click the folder and then click Sharing and Security.

On the Security tab, configure the additional accounts and permissions that are minimally necessary to run the Web site, and then click OK. Some of the accounts listed, such as Administrators and System, are already configured by default.

Note:
To add a new group or user name, click Add, and then click the Locations button. Select the local computer name from the list and then click OK. Then type the account name that you want to add into the text box. After typing the name, click Check Names to verify the account name. Click OK to add the account.
