Seeing Website1 in IIS

[jeromebeaudry2]

Hello. With Visual Studio 2002, whenever I created an asp.net
application, a directory (folder) was created under the root directory
in IIS. Why with VS2005 can't I do the same thing?

I am trying to access the site from IIS so that I can go to the ASP.net
configurations and change the default server to SQL Server 2000. (I
want to set up user accounts.) Now I can't.

Also: Have the ASP.net applications disappeared from VS2005? Can we
only design "web sites"?

Thanks.

Jerome,
If you will take the time to download and install the Web Application
Project add-on to VS.NET 2005 and read all the comments and tutorials about
it on Scott Guthrie's blog, this should go a long way toward eliminating the
confusion.

Peter:

Is there a way to quickly set VS.NET 2005 to link to SQL Server 2000
instead of 2005 Express?

Thanks.

I followed the Scott Guthrie's instructions written here:

http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archi...25/423703.aspx

On step 3, below, I start having trouble:

***
Step 3: Point your web.config file at the new SQL Database

ASP.NET 2.0 now supports a new section in your web.config file called
"<connectionStrings>" which (not too surprisingly) are used to
store connection strings. One nice thing from an administration
perspective is that the new ASP.NET Admin MMC Snap-in now provides a
GUI based way to configure and manage these:

***

How do I get to the Admin MMC without IIS? I don't see the option in
the VS GUI.

Thanks.

UPDATE:

I updated the web.config file and everything works fine. However, I
would have liked to have done this directly through the ASP.NET Admin
MMC Snap-in. Does anyone know how to get to this?

Thanks.
