Is there a way to use the website administration tool from the hosting server
instead of localhost? I need a way for my client to be able to maintain
members and roles and they obviously won't be using Visual Studio.

Any suggestions would be apprecitated.

Thanks!

You can do that - register the app as a IIS app - you have to look through
the code though, on one page (forgot which one - presumably the main page)
- there is a check if the client is local - you can remove that line of code
and it will work.

Be very careful with that, make sure this is secured properly.

I wrote an Article on MSDN about this.

I had the same problem and did not see a solution. Microsoft
published it because they see it as a good solution. There is a way
to make the app built into visual studio work on IIS but it creates
security concerns. According to MS, it does not prevent cross domain
type attacks.

Good Luck.
