http://test is a domain (or web site) URL, while
http://localhost/test is a
directory name under a different domain (or web site). Assuming that you
have two domains (or web sites), "test" and "localhost," they might
conceivably point to the same virtual directory. It might be possible to use
DNS or the IIS metabase to obtain a list of all domains or web sites on the
server, and it might be possible to map each domain or web site to a virtual
or physical directory, but I have a feeling that you're asking the wrong
question.

Hi there
I have an ASP.NET web application created in Visual Studio 2005. The
application is installed to a subdirectory in wwwroot, which is mapped in
turn to a virtual directory under the Default Web Site. I would like to
load the application in the browser using a simple name, e.g. http://test
rather than http://localhost/test. Is there a way to map a virtual
directory to such a simple name from within the Visual Studio 2005 web
setup project? Also, is there a way to (a) enable default documents in the
Default Web Site and (b) add a particular .aspx page name and extension to
the Default Documents list (again from within the VS 2005 setup project)?
Best regards
Loane
