Setting up New IIS/FTP site and Virtual Directory with VB .NET

[BobAchgill]

I also asked this in the inetserver.iis.ftp forum...

I would like some example VB .NET code that shows how to
add a new FTP site in IIS and virtual directory with
System.DirectoryServices. It would be nice if this code
included implementing security. My target platforms are
Windows 2000 and XP Pro.

Also, how can the VB .Net be used to push the user
through installing IIS? As opposed to telling the user
to go through the AddRemove programs to do the IIS
install.

Thank you!

I do not think that you can push the install of IIS but you can state to the
user that IIS is not installed and must be installed before going on.

Like I said I am unsure about pushing the install of IIS..
In which case you might not want to do anyway.

Hi Chris,

OK I guess I won't push IIS!

But what about making the virtual directory
programmatically?

I found this code in C# do you know where I might find
such code in VB .NET?
