Workaround

Derek on 5\14\9 - See KB36756--- Navigate to the default working instance; in this case it is <a href="file:c:/inetpub/wwwroot/ArcGIS/rest." target="_blank">c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ArcGIS\rest.</a> Copy the <EncodedString> line under the <Identity> section in the rest.config file.- Navigate to <a href="file:c:/inetpub/wwwroot/test/rest/rest.config" target="_blank">c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test\rest\rest.config</a> and remove the <EncodedString> line. Then paste in the previously copied line above.-You should now be able to access rest services thru Start->Programs->Arcgis->ArcGis Server for the Microsoft .NET Framework->Arcgis Services Directory test.
