Please note the following System
Requirements for installing ARKIIS:
Operating System:
Windows NT 4.0 Workstation
running Personal Web Server with SP6a (or)
Windows NT 4.0 Server running IIS 4.0 with SP6a (or)
Windows 2000 Professional / Server / Advanced Server running IIS 5.0 with SP4.0
(or)
Windows XP Professional running IIS 5.1 with SP2.0 (or)
Windows 2003 Server running IIS 6.0 with SP1

When you try to administer IIS on a computer running Windows
2000 IIS 5.x/ Windows 2003 IIS 6.0 from a computer running Windows NT 4.0 with
IIS 4.0 or vice versa, this error message will occur due to the metabase schema
difference.
You can connect to the remote IIS Server using
the Connect feature in ARKIIS.
ARKIIS connects to the IIS machine using the
currently logged on user context. ARKIIS expects the currently logged on user to
have administrative privileges in the target IIS Server to connect and generate
the reports.
Using ARKIIS Schedule feature, a scheduled task can be created and made to run
in a user context which has administrative privileges on the remote machine. You
may print/export the output to a CSV/MDB/HTML file.
ARKIIS generates an error log file in the
application path "C:\Program Files\ARKIIS\Log"
The error log file tends to become
large in size over a period of time especially if the application meets with
frequent error conditions. The application does an "append" to the
error log each time it runs. This is required for diagnostic purposes during
trouble shooting. You may delete the error log file periodically.
The message will appear when you are trying to connect to IIS
server whose IIS version is other than 6.0. The selected report is applicable
for IIS 6.0 only.
The Log Analysis tool in ARKIIS parses the log files under
the specified log file directory of the Web sites and FTP sites. This tool
requires log files to be available and logging to be enabled to generate log
files. The Enable Logging option and the Log file directory for each Web and FTP
site can be modified in property sheet of the Web / FTP site through IIS MMC.
For example, default logfile path is "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Logfiles"
"I
did get a chance to evaluate ARKIIS & found it to
be the most useful IIS admin documentation tool I've
run across. I have contemplated writing my own
application, but have never had the time. This is
BETTER than what I imagined could be done." - Space Gateway Support - Kennedy

We had time to try
the evaluation version and it worked very well and
suited our needs. In fact, ARKIIS is the only software
we found able to inventory IIS configuration on remote
servers. It works very well on Windows 2003 Server.

Thank
you very much for including the Quick Report in Admin
Report Kit for IIS the report is running successfully.
This is the best support I have ever received from a
software development company, I am IMPRESSED.
