One other task I just thought of: 8) An IIS metabase task that lets me whack various IIS settings like the authentication mode used in a virtual directory and map new filename extensions to aspnet_isapi.dll.

I took a quick peek at the sources for NAnt/NAntContrib and it looks like there's a bit of room left for improvement. But I just wanted to ping the list to make sure that there aren't folks already working on these things and to check to see if I missed something in my quick peek at the sources. One of the major problems in a build is the deployment phase. Here are a few deployment-related tasks that I'm itching to build to solve some of these problems: 1) A server happiness task that lets you snoop around on the server to see what's there. 2) An Enterprise Services task that generates the appropriate COM+ catalog goo. 3) An extension to the AssemblyInfo task to generate all of the appropriate Enterprise Services goo. 4) Some combination of tasks to handle the delay-signing problem (I still have to think this one through). 5) A deployment task that auto-generates passwords for new accounts, and makes them available to other NAnt tasks for the duration of NAnt "run" - the idea here is to let you create new accounts and set the RunAs attribute in a COM+ application - but I'm sure the utility could be extended to other things that require generated passwords. 6) A SQL task that lets you whack / set ACL's on SQL server objects. 7) A modification of the existing SQL task that lets you run osql using integrated authentication and the specified username / password combination. Can folks suggest additional tasks required for deployment of ASP.NET applications based on their own experiences? I'll add them to my list.
