Configuring IIS with Powershell - Enable Forms Authentication

问题

My IIS looks like this:

Sites ->
        Default Web Site ->
                            MyWebApp

Then the question is: How do I enable Forms Authentication on MyWebApp? I mange to change or edit Anonymous Access, Basic, and Windows Auth. However, Forms Auth is not that easy. How do I do this in Powershell?

I'm able to read the setting this way:

(Get-WebConfiguration system.web/authentication 'IIS:\sites\Default Web Site\MyWebApp').Mode

I'm having trouble or no luck with Set-Webconfiguration, or Set-Webconfigurationproperty. I find these cmdlets hard to figure out.

Change happens in web.config, at least the web.config updates when I hit Enable or Disable on Forms Authentication at the IIS manager. Any clues and tips are highly appreciated.

回答1:

You pipe the authentication configuration settings to Set-Webconfiguration giving the appropriate filter after you modify your properties:

$config = (Get-WebConfiguration system.web/authentication 'IIS:\sites\Default Web Site')
$config.mode = "Forms"
$config | Set-WebConfiguration system.web/authentication

Note: Backup your config before trying this.

Or with a one liner:

Set-WebConfiguration system.web/authentication 'IIS:\sites\Default Web Site' -value @{mode='Forms'}
