Publish ASP.NET 5 Web Application to remote IIS

[simonpbond]

In Visual Studio 2015, I can successfully preview / publish to a remote IIS server with a 4.6 Web application. However, publishing fails when using an ASP.NET 5 template / web applications, it will not even provide a preview.

Is it possible to publish an ASP.NET 5 web application at the current time using Visual Studio 2015 / Publish to a remote IIS server?

If so, is there any instructions on doing this? (not for local IIS).
