Hi there,
You can use ADSI to program against the IIS configuration. It can be difficult to find out what properties you need to set, but it's quite possible to do this.
Here are some pointers:
http://www.west-wind.com/presentations/WebServerConfig/WebServerConfig.htm http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/iis/default.asp?url=/windows2000/en/server/iis/htm/asp/aore94th.htm http://www.iisfaq.com/Default.aspx?tabid=2537
In addition to this, you'll need a * record for your domain pointing to your machine. That means whatever you type in before your domain name should bring you to your server. Then you can use ADSI to create new websites and set the host header to SomeName.YourDomain.Com
HtH,

Hi, This is the code that I m using...
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click CreateVirtualDir("savan", "sampletest", "D:\Savan\Backup\ChoicesWildNet\Application Sohel") End Sub
Private Sub CreateVirtualDir(ByVal WebSite As String, ByVal AppName As String, ByVal Path As String)
Dim IISSchema As New System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("IIS://" & WebSite & "/Schema/AppIsolated") 'Dim CanCreate As Boolean = Not IISSchema.Properties("Syntax").Value.ToString.ToUpper() = "BOOLEAN" IISSchema.Dispose()
' If CanCreate Then Dim PathCreated As Boolean
Try Dim IISAdmin As New System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("IIS://" & WebSite & "/W3SVC/1/Root")
'make sure folder exists If Not System.IO.Directory.Exists(Path) Then System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(Path) PathCreated = True End If
'If the virtual directory already exists then delete it For Each VD As System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry In IISAdmin.Children If VD.Name = AppName Then IISAdmin.Invoke("Delete", New String() {VD.SchemaClassName, AppName}) IISAdmin.CommitChanges() Exit For End If Next VD
'Create and setup new virtual directory Dim VDir As System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry = IISAdmin.Children.Add(AppName, "IIsWebVirtualDir") VDir.Properties("Path").Item(0) = Path VDir.Properties("AppFriendlyName").Item(0) = AppName VDir.Properties("EnableDirBrowsing").Item(0) = False VDir.Properties("AccessRead").Item(0) = True VDir.Properties("Acces****ecute").Item(0) = True VDir.Properties("AccessWrite").Item(0) = False VDir.Properties("AccessScript").Item(0) = True VDir.Properties("AuthNTLM").Item(0) = True VDir.Properties("EnableDefaultDoc").Item(0) = True VDir.Properties("DefaultDoc").Item(0) = "default.htm,default.aspx,default.asp" VDir.Properties("AspEnableParentPaths").Item(0) = True VDir.CommitChanges()
'the following are acceptable params 'INPROC = 0 'OUTPROC = 1 'POOLED = 2 VDir.Invoke("AppCreate", 1)
Catch Ex As Exception If PathCreated Then System.IO.Directory.Delete(Path) End If Response.Write(Ex.Message.ToString()) End Try ' End If End Sub

It would be better if you can tell me What type of permission need to be set in IIS in order to create Virtual Directory in this way.
Thanks

I am not 100% user, but I think you need Administrative privileges, or at least that of a Power User.
However, it's easy to find out using Windows XP's Run As feature.
Compile your code in an exe and run it with different user accounts....

Hi Surjit,
Aren't the answers to that question in this post, and the other code you posted in a different thread?
Your code is probably fine, but the user account to execute it (probably IUSR_MachineName) doesn't have the necessary permissions to execute it.
Cheers,

Like I said, make sure that the account that executes this code has sufficient permissions. It's not about setting permissions for the site you are creating; it's about permissions for the code that creates the site.
You may want to take a look here for some ideas: http://imar.spaanjaars.com/QuickDocId.aspx?quickdoc=290
