The WSS 3.0 Hosters Solution Kit is available as an installable package that can be configured with WSS V3. It leverages a number of custom components that were built for WSS V3.

• Forms-based authentication module that extends the SQL Server membership provider and scopes users down to the individual site.
• Web services that provision WSS sites as well as both Active Directory and SQL Server users.
• Web parts that facilitate adding new users and changing user passwords.
• HTTP module that redirects a subdomain such as: http://blogs.intranet.fabrikam.com to http://intranet.fabrikam.com/blogs

The Solution Kit is composed of two integrated applications.

• The first is the Solution Configurator which is a tool that a Hoster would use to configure solutions based on templates.
• The second is the Starter Kit which a Hoster's end-customer would use to build a site based on solutions that were created though the Solution Configurator
