Good articles/webcasts on ASP.Net and Portal for testers

[sunil]

Dear All,
I have a task at hand...I need to give some basic training to my
testers about Portal and how ASP.Net works...
I am sure there are articles and videos helping testers understand
about Portal...
I am looking at the following topics:
1. What is Portal and its parts?
2. How does ASP.Net work?
3. IIS settings for application pool etc.
4. Web.Config?
5. Performance Counters for ASP.Net.
6. How to use MS ACT (application Center Test).
7. How to use Network Monitor to find amount of data transferred from
server to client and vice versa?
8. Web garding and Web Farming?

I feel these are topics that even testers should know without going
into the technical implementation details.
If you know of any such good links please post it...it will be of
great help...

Thanks & regards
Sunil
