I have FTP site:<br />
<br />
Site1 (points to d:\sites\folder1)<br />
<br />
I added virtual directory &nbsp;(points to &nbsp;d:\someotherplace\)<br />
<br />
ftp to the site, can't see the virtual folder, if I try to change to the directory it is not found...<br />
<br />
I found a doc on the net that says add an empty directory of the same name as the virtual folder in d:\sites\folder1... so I created &nbsp;d:\sites\folder1\someother<wbr />place<br />
<br />
ftp to the site and you see the folder but it does not point to the virtual folder... it points to the folder i created in the site.<br />
<br />
what am i doing wrong?

IIS 6 Virtual Directory

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.

Server Software

IIS is Internet Information Services, the web server included with Windows Server operating systems. All current versions are built on a modular architecture; modules can be added or removed individually so that those required for specific functionality are installed. The full installation of IIS includes HTTP, security, content, compression, caching, logging and diagnostics.
