Configuring IIS 6.0 to turn on the TRACE method

Who knew it would be so hard to find details on how to turn the TRACE method _on_ for an IIS 6.0 box? In order to test a plugin for Oedipus I needed to turn the TRACE method back on for my testing server running Windows 2003 and IIS 6.0. I finally found the required detail here at the Microsoft site.

For reference - TRACE is controlled by a registry key. Create a DWORD value called EnableTraceMethod in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Services\ W3SVC\ Parameters. This should be 1 for on, and 0 for off. Enjoy!
