    # Remotely connect to IIS Web Server.

    Whenever you want to perform any tasks related to IIS on server you might be starting ```mstsc``` aka Remote Desktop Connection RDP for those tasks, but using the facility of remotely managing IIS from client IIS, no need of RDP now and then.

    *Follow the simple steps on IIS Server and client IIS machine.*

    ## Process on Server IIS

    - Run the following commands in powershell on the **remote IIS Server**
    - ```Install-WindowsFeature Web-Server```
    - ```Install-WindowsFeature Web-Mgmt-Service```
    - ```Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WebManagement\Server -Name EnableRemoteManagement -Value 1```
    - ```Net Stop WMSVC```
    - ```Net Start WMSVC```

    ## Process on Client IIS

    - Install [IIS Remote Connection manager](https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/iis-manager)
    - On the Client IIS Restart IIS Manager Window
    - You would see one blue world icon under connections
    - Click Connect to a server
    - Enter ip of server
    - Enter username of server
    - Enter password of server
    - Connect
    - Tick all services
    - If asks then click Run one by one for all prompts
    - At the end you would see that server under the list of IIS
