Hi,
Where are stored the information about web virtual servers?
I found some in the registry under
\HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W3SVC\Parameters\Virtu
al Roots\
But it looks like they're stored some where else.
I had a virtual server that I removed and now that I try to create an other
with the same name I get the folowing error
The alias "LM/W3SVC/1/Root/camac" already exists. Please choose a different
alias.
What's this LM/W3SVC/1/Root?
where can I find it?

Michel

It is stored in a binary file called the MetaBase, which can be manually
edited with something called MetaEdit.
