If your web root directory is e:\inetpub\wwwroot, you don't want to create a virtual directory mapping pointing to that, because those refer to subdirectories of the web root, not the root itself. In your URLs above, "webroot" is not a hostname, so that won't resolve. The virtual mapping you created would map this URL: http://localhost:8500/webroot/ to the directory: e:\inetpub\wwwroot I don't think that's what you want. As for relocating the CFIDE files, etc, you could simply create virtual directories pointing to those, if you didn't want to move them.
