The following settings are available in the Virtual Directory area for an application or a virtual directory
in the Internet Information Services view.
Table 24-43: Virtual Directory Settings for an Application or a Virtual Directory
Setting Description
Content Source Path (Local
or UNC)
This setting identifies the local path or network directory path that stores the default
files for your application or virtual directory.
• If the content for the application or virtual directory is on the target system, click
the ellipsis button (...) in this setting to specify a local path. The Browse for
Directory dialog box opens.
By default, the files are stored in IISROOTFOLDER.
• If the content for the application or virtual directory is not on the target system,
click the UNC button in this setting to specify a network location. Following is an
example:
\\server\share
Tip: Each application or virtual directory should have a unique physical path, especially
if it is going to be installed on a Windows Vista and later system or a Windows Server
2008 and later system. To learn more, see Run-Time Requirements for IIS Support.
Script Source Access Specify whether you want to allow end users to access source code if either read or
write permissions are set. Source code includes scripts in ASP applications.
Read Access Specify whether you want to provide end users with read access to the application or
virtual directory.
Write Access Specify whether you want to provide end users with write access to the application or
virtual directory. This means that end users can change the application’s or virtual
directory’s properties on the target machine.
Directory Browsing Specify whether you want to allow end users to see all the virtual directories and
subdirectories below this application or virtual directory.
Log Visits Specify whether you want to record visits to this application or virtual directory in a log
file. Visits are recorded only if logging is enabled.
Index this Resource Specify whether you want to allow Microsoft Indexing Service to include this
application or virtual directory in a full-text index.
This setting applies to IIS 6 and earlier. IIS 7 ignores this setting.
