HttpSysCfg

Current Version: 2.1.0.0

Did you ever struggle to configure WCF HTTP endpoints correctly when running your services under least-privilege accounts?

HttpSysCfg is a tool that simplifies setting/removing/modifying ACLs on URLs for HttpListener (and thus WCF HTTP-based bindings) which uses http.sys. You can specify specific accounts (local or domain) as well as well-known SIDs like NETWORK SERVICE or AUTHENTICATED USERS.

In addition the tool allows to pick certificates from the certificate store to retrieve the thumbprint for SSL configuration.

Note: in order for this tool to work properly, you need to have httpcfg.exe accessible in the path. httpcfg.exe can be downloaded e.g. as part of the Windows XP SP2 Support Tools.
