    It would be in your best interest to lab out IIS and muck around with it as I find it very clunky.

    Many business use IIS and Apache so IIS is still mainly used in the real world.


    Study:
    Which ports does protocols in IIS reside on?
    Make a website and redirect it to use a different port than port 80 and go to the website using that port
    Study ALL ways on how to configure multiple sites and lab it out
    When you right-click properties a website study ALL tabs and ALL options. This covers a lot of material but you definitely need it all
    You can restart IIS by going to start->run->iisreset
    Study which services it uses and what the dependencies are

    Thats what I can think of off the top of my head

    You may learn something!

    Make sure you know what to backup and how to restore.
    Also know and understand process isolation mode.
    All things are possible, only believe.

    Hmm, I would say definately set up a VM lab and mess about with it anyway.

    But study common tasks such as creating virtual directories and pointing them to shares, Remote admin component etc... thats what I'm studying anyway.

    I feel that IIS overall isn't such a big subject. It doesn't really take long to cover it all so you may as well cover as much as possible to play it safe. Eitherway it can be essential to know it "on the job".

    tigerplug, that was a good tip for everyone on how to go about IIS. But just an FYI :) , RS_MCP passed this exam a couple of weeks ago and is now gearing to take on the beast.
    NSX, NSX, more NSX..
