Bulk Creation of Virtual Folders

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to script the following and possibly
point me in the direction of an example?

I've been set the task of creating 200+ FTP Virtual Folders in IIS 5 running
on Windows 2000 Server.

The folders will be named sequentially, i.e. site1, site2, site3 ... site200

They will point to physical directories of the same name, i.e. E:\FTP\site1,
E:\FTP\site2

Each site will need Read/Write permissions (no Scripts) and Application
Protection within the WWW Container will need to be set to High (Isolated).

Any help on this is greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Hi,

The information you are trying to reach is located in IIS's meta data. There
are a few tools that can help you in faster bulk editing. Here's what I found
using a fast google search
