IIS GetObject by description ?

Hi all !

I'm using ADSI with GetObject("IIS://localhost/W3SVC/1") and it works
fine.

Is there any way to bind to IIS using the web site description rather
than the id ?

I'm looking for our product web site without knowing which id it has in
the metabase.


Thanks in advance, hope to get answers.

Hi,

No, it is not possible. You need to use the ID. You can however find the
ID from the website description.

I wrote some example code for this a few days ago, using C#. Maybe you can
find it useful:

<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.gafvert.info/extra/findidbyname.cs.html" target="_blank">http://www.gafvert.info/extra/findidbyname.cs.html</a>

Good Luck!
