Cybermaxs basically has the correct answer, with one minor caveat in my experience: You might need to do an iisreset before things will work (that is, click win + R, and enter iisreset, or just run iisreset in a command line window).

Answer 2

In fact, it's depending on IIS and/or Windows Server version.

As a prerequisite, you have to enable Net Pipe Activation first. You can add it via windows feature or Server manager.

Here is the illustrated explanation :

First, Go to the Advanced settings on your Web Site. Under IIS manager, it's on the right after you select your WebSite.

In Enabled Protocols, add net.pipe (default is http)

At the end, Add a new Bidning (Right Pane when you select your web site), and add a net.pipe binding with a wildcard "*" for Bidning Informaiton.

That's all.
