I have IIS 6 installed on a Windows XP Pro workstation. I can get to IIS
under

computer managment > services and applications > Internet Information
Service

but I don't have the IIS icon in Administrative Tools nor can I run iis.msc

Any ideas?

First off - Windows XP Pro has IIS 5.1 and not 6.0 which is only available
on Windows 2003 Server

If you are missing this shortcut then I can only assume it was deleted.

You can create a new MMC file for IIS.

Type "mmc" into the Start-Run dialog.

On the file menu select "Add/Remove snapin"
Click Add
Select "Internet Information Services"
Click Add
Click Close
Click Ok
Click File-Save

Give it a Name such as "Internet Information Services"
