MS Web Deploy + Web Deployment of a Remote Service, as Provided

I am trying to automate the deployment of a site on our production server after assembly. The production server is hosted by a third-party provider and is not located on our local network.

If I:

  • Install web deployment on our build machine (source)
  • Install web deployment on production machine (destination)
  • Install optional remote service web deployment on the production machine

Given that the production machine is "in the wild", how is the service protected, so that only I can publish files on the production machine? Does it use Windows authentication?

It uses Windows authentication.

See the following KB article to learn how to secure the service: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd569093(WS.10).aspx
