The configuration is split between four
different configuration files:
?–? Machine.config These settings apply to the whole server and are
inherited by all .NET and IIS configuration files.
?– ApplicationHost.config These settings are specific to IIS and inherit
any settings from Machine.config. This file is stored by default at
%systemroot%\system32\inetsrv.
?– Web.config (root-level) These settings are shared by all ASP.NET
applications on the server and inherit from both Machine.config and
Application.config. This file is stored by default at %systemroot%\
Microsoft.NET\Framework\versionNumber\CONFIG.
?–? Web.config (application-level) These settings are used to control
configuration settings for a specific ASP.NET application. They inherit
from all three configuration files above as well as any other web.config
file that is above its hierarchy. This file is stored in the same folder as the
ASP.NET application.

DELEGATED ADMINISTRATION
When it comes to IIS, one of the largest administrative overheads is managing the various
configuration changes required by each of the applications you host on your server.
It would be great if you could just permit developers to make some of their own customizations
while still retaining control over the stability of your server. If that??™s what
you??™ve been wishing for all these years, your wish has been granted in IIS 7.
