I was writing up this question and in the process, it forced me to think a little harder and I answered it myself, though I still don't completely understand why it solved it.

In the old version of IIS Manager, I could just right-click on a VD, hit properties, and then in the ASP.NET tab pick the version of ASP.NET I wanted to run.

Can you point me to best practices for file hosting in IIS 7. The number of files can be very high > 500,000, 2-10KB each. A possible concern is the performance with such a large number of files.

I have a problem with timeouts in IIS. In the web.config the session timeout was set to 60 minutes but after 20 minutes the session ends. This problem only occurs in IIS7 and not in IIS5. After some investigation, I discovered it was due to the application pool's timeout. If the App Pool is left 20 minutes without doing anything, IIS ...
IIS 7 on Vista has a limit for concurrent requests (up to 10). I have a Virtual PC on my Vista with Windows Server 2008 installed on it. IIS 7 on the virtual PC still limits simultaneous requests.
