Listing Web Virtual Directories Using Iisvdir.vbs

  • Artykuł

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

You can use the command-line script iisvdir.vbs, which is stored in systemroot\System32, to list the virtual directory on local or remote computers running a member of the Windows Server 2003 family with IIS 6.0.

The /query operation only displays virtual directories at the root of the Web site, or path, and does not search recursively. Also, it does not display physical directories.

Important

You must be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer to run scripts and executables. As a security best practice, log on to your computer by using an account that is not in the Administrators group, and then use the runas command to run your script or executable as an administrator. At a command prompt, type runas /profile /User:MyComputer</STRONG>Administrator cmd to open a command window with administrator rights and then type cscript.exe ScriptName (include the script's full path and any parameters).

This topic includes the following information:

  • Syntax: The order in which you type a command and any arguments and options that follow it.

  • Parameters: The values that are given to variables in the command.

  • Examples: Sample code and an explanation of the results.

Syntax

iisvdir /query WebSite[/VirtualPath][/s Computer [/u [Domain\]User**/p** Password]]

Parameters

WebSite

Required. Specifies the descriptive name, or the metabase path, of the Web site.

VirtualPath

Specifies a path, if necessary, to the virtual directory within the Web site. This parameter is required when the virtual directory is not located at the root of the Web site.

/s Computer

Runs the script on the specified remote computer. Type the computer name or IP address without backslashes. The default is the local computer.

/u [Domain\]User

Runs the script with the permissions of the specified user account. This account must be a member of the Administrators group on the remote computer. By default, the script runs with the permissions of the current user of the local computer.

/p Password

Specifies the password of the user account that is specified in the /u parameter.

Examples

Example 1:

The following example displays the virtual directories at the root of the "Finance" Web site on the local computer:

iisvdir /query Finance

The /s, /u, and /p parameters are unnecessary in this instance because the default computer is local and the user running the command must be logged on as an administrator.

In response, iisvdir displays the two virtual directories at the root of "Finance" Web site. These directories appear at the "Finance" root even though their physical locations are unrelated. In this example, "Alias" represents the names of the virtual directories, while "Physical Root" is their actual location.

Note

This display does not include virtual directories that are subdirectories of the site. The procedure for finding subdirectories is demonstrated below in Example 2.

Alias Physical Root

/Personnel D:\Corpdir\FinanceWeb\People

/Insurance C:\Marketing\Insurance\HTMFiles

Example 2:

The following example displays the virtual directories that are subdirectories of the "Insurance" virtual directory on the "Finance" Web site. The command specifies the "Insurance" directory by using its virtual path.

The example also uses the /s parameter to identify the remote computer, as well as the /u and /p parameters to run iisvdir.vbs with the permissions of the user's administrator account.

iisvdir /query Finance\Insurance

In response, iisvdir.vbs reveals the "Current" subdirectory of the "Insurance" virtual directory, and its physical location.

Alias Physical Root

/Current C:\Insurance\Monthly\200204
