Author IIS 6.0 Administration for non-admin users

Hi,

This is probably going to sound like a stupid question, but I'm
stumped.

I am running IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server. In the past, when our web
developers needed to create or edit websites, I would simply sit with
them, log on remotely and create any files, foldrs or virtual
directories that they required. However, this is not really a tenable
situation any longer and, of course, for security reasons I cannot
simply give them admin rights or the password to the admin account.

I have created an account for them to logon remotely to the webserver,
however, they do not have the proper rights to use the IIS management
console. Is there a way to provide users without admin rights the
ability to use IIS to create, edit and manage websites either from a
remote desktop connection or simply from their desktop? I have to
imagine that there is, as generally in organizations I've seen keep web
development and systems administration seperate.

What key am I missing? Seems like the Operator's Tab in IIS 5.0 would
allow me to delegate this kind of privledge, but I'm stumped in IIS
6.0. Any help would be appreciated.
