Re: Which features must need to be kept in IIS 7.5.

The best source for mojoPortal IIS setup information is the IIS Web Setup document. Anything that is strictly required should be mentioned in that document. There are some external links in there too that you may find helpful.

Re: Which features must need to be kept in IIS 7.5.

Hi,Joe,

On my VPS, there is only one mojo site ,

should I delete the ASP , CGI, ... features in IIS 7.5 like below,  

"X" means should delete for security reasons

"?" I don't understand it to choose. 

Could you correct my below wrong choice ?

Re: Which features must need to be kept in IIS 7.5.

please don't post duplicate questions. I deleted your other thread.

You don't need directory browsing.

You don't need cgi

You don't need url authorization but it may be useful

I use Dynamic compression but technically you don't need it, it just may improve performance.

I don't know what IIS hostable web core is, if mojoPortal is working without it then I suppose you don't need it.

Hope that helps,

Joe
