    404 Page cannot be found...connecting via port 8172

     For some reason i cannot connect to IIS remotely using the web interface.  When i type https://192.168.1.5:8172  i get a username/password log in prompt but after i enter in the information i get directed to a 404 page cannot be found reply.  Any idea as to how to solve this?  I have googled this and am unable to find a solution.


    I have IIS installed.

    I have the Web Management Service installed and running

    I am using the administrator account.

     

     

    Am i missing some step?

    It's meant to use IIS manager and remote delegation.

     Thank you for the reply.  I have tried what you suggested in that link on friday.  That is one of the things that came up in my google search for this answer. 

     For some reason after i do all that it still gives me a 404 page not found error.  Im sure it is something small or something i overlooked if i can just figure out what it is.

    You have to connect using inetmgr - you cannot just use your browser for administration.  While the administration is over http, it uses a bunch of web-service calls - there are no browsable administration pages.
