In chapter 15 you say that the WSAT is only available from the local machine, so how would you create a page in the management section that would allow you to view and enable newly registered users?

Hi there,

Starting with IIS 7, you can also manage users using IIS.

If you want to do it on-line, you'll need to create your own admin pages that use the Membership API. For example, you can call Membership.GetAllUsers to get a list of all existing users. Not really easy to write, but certainly doable.

There's an article on the MSDN site that describes this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa478958.aspx

Also, the chapter Wrox BugBase from my book ASP.NET 2.0 Instant Results has a small management section that shows you how you could accomplish this.

Cheers,

Imar
