I'd like to administer my IIS 6 servers from my Windows 7 (RTM) laptop, but the IIS 6 manager won't install. How can I manage my IIS 6 servers?

You need to install the Remote Server Admin Tools (RSAT) for Windows 7.

Ah ha! I knew I hadn't installed something yet... +1 and thanks for the link. – Chris_K Aug 24 '09 at 21:58
... doh, the link in that article is ker-busted. – Chris_K Aug 24 '09 at 22:04
Sorry. Found 'em: microsoft.com/downloads/… – Chris_K Aug 24 '09 at 22:05
Hope it helps! It'll add all the relevant snap-ins under the Administrative Tools menu, which should include IIS. – Izzy Aug 24 '09 at 22:54

A note about the Remote Server Admin Tools (RSAT) for Windows 7. Once you install them you will have to enable them in the Add/Remove Windows feature under Programs. They will not automatically show up after installation. Keep that in mind as I installed them twice because they didn't show up afte rinstallation. – jgardner04 Sep 30 '09 at 18:46

The version linked in the other answer doesn't work with the RC. I (finally) found a working link to the RC version of RSAT since all of the links at Microsoft's site have been removed.

I hope this saves someone else some time.
