Rutger,
I enhanced the iis tasks to incorporate IIS6 (W2K3) as such. Before my change, only the notion of the 'default website' was implemented. I enhanced it in such a way that one can supply the IIS port additionally to the existing parameters (via the port one can differentiate between two site ... for example a development site on port 81, a testing site on port 82, etc ...).
If I remember correctly, this version is now included within the NAntContrib implementation as is (Gert was so gracious to include my change in the official build).
The mkiistask can be foreseen to use a directory as physical folder for the virtual directory creation (your notion of a ROOT directory).
I think your idea of of the different properties for a given virtual directory
is included within the mkiisdir task (as the different attributes) ... perhaps
you can create a iissite task pair with the same idea as the iisdir ones :-)
Hope this helps a bit !
Greetings, Frank

I just subscribed. I am not [yet] a contributing developer.
there are some issues with the iis tasks:
1) the tasks will crash if there are sites with more than 1 binding 2) if there are multiple sites bound to the specified port, an 'arbitrary' one is targeted 3) unspecified properties are filled with defaults instead of left blank (meaning 'inherit') 4) the ROOT directory of a site can not be targeted 5) one can not make make/configure a new site
i can take (some of) these issues up but i have a number of questions
A. is anybody else already busy with these tasks?
B. 1) & 2) are simple bug-fixes but "fixing" 3) is a breaking change in
a major way. is that desirable? is there a policy on this?
C. 4) could be supported by a minor enhancement of the mkiisdir task.
alternatively, 4) could be made part of 5) by creating a mkiissite task
which
is a close relative of the mkiisdir task. after all a site must have a
ROOT and the
latter is a virtualdir. any thoughts on this? preferences? suggestions?
D. i only have iis5, is there anyone available to fix things for iis6? do we
actually
bother with iis4?
D. how do i submit the fruits of my labor?
