Instructions for using the Adsutil.vbs of the IIS Admin script

What's adsutil.vbs? It is a command-line-based IIS management script for Windows 2003 IIS service, located in the%systemdrive%inetpubadminscripts directory, 95,426 bytes. Such a large script will know that the function must be very powerful, and it is true. I feel like it's a command line. Internet Information Services Manager (in fact, Windows 2000 is managed with more than 20 VBS under%SYSTEMDRIVE%INETPUBADMINSCRIPTS). And by 2003, there is only one adsutil.vbs left, enough to show how powerful its function is.

Mention adsutil.vbs have to mention Metabase.bin, this file is the most important configuration file for IIS, all IIS settings will eventually be stored in this file, IIS Manager and Adsutil.vbs is through the file read configuration information to display to the user. Its storage structure is very much like the registry, is a tree-type storage structure. IIS Manager and Adsutil.vbs access Metabase.bin through a ADsPath path, which is started by IIS: where LocalHost represents the local server, and W3SVC represents the IIS service, such as iis:localhost/ W3SVC/1 represents the first web site on the local server, Iis:localhost/w3svc/1/root/vdir represents the VDir virtual directory under the first Web site root directory.

Practical Examples:

REM Create a virtual directory

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:300 create w3svc/1/root/%1 "IIsWebVirtualDir"

REM set the properties of a virtual directory

REM creates an in-process application (. NET has no InProc and Outproc, but old scripts can still be used.

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 Appcreateinproc w3svc/1/root/%1

REM set the root directory of the application

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set w3svc/1/root/%1/approot/lm/w3svc/1/root/%1

REM set the display name of the application

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set w3svc/1/root/%1/appfriendlyname%1

The isolation level of the application (in. NET without setting)

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set w3svc/1/root/%1/appisolated%2

REM set the path of the virtual directory www.2cto.com

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set W3svc/1/root/%1/path%2

REM sets the Execute permissions on the virtual directory, 513 is a pure scripting way

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set w3svc/1/root/%1/accessflags 513

REM set AuthFlags value, 5 indicates allow anonymous access and integrated Windows authentication

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set w3svc/1/root/%1/authflags 5

REM set the DirBrowseFlags value, DirBrowseFlags is the control of directory browsing switch parameters, more complex, just fill in the line

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set W3svc/1/root/%1/dirbrowseflags 1073741886

REM Set Default Document

cscript scriptsadsutil.vbs//nologo//t:60 set W3svc/1/root/%1/defaultdoc "default.aspx"

REM Set directory permissions (readable, non-writable, browsable script resource, not viewable directory)

cscript scriptschaccess.vbs//nologo//t:60-a w3svc/1/root/%1 +read-write

REM setting
