IIS Default web site

HI, I am configuring IIS and have added a web site. However, the default for
the server is the wwwroot. How can I alter the configuration so that by
default IE http://MyServerAddress points to something other than the root ?

Use the IIS Manager to change the root directory.

Right-click the "Default Web Site", select "Properties", and then "Home Directory".
Change it to whichever directory you want to use as root.
