Just looking for the relevant documentation. An example is not necessary, but would be appreciated. We have a situation where we are having to create 100s of virtual directories manually, and it seems like automating this would be a good way to make the process more efficient for now. Perhaps next year we can rework the server env...
I've just had a small nightmare with unwanted cookies somehow being created. I swear my code never created a cookie in a certain virtual directory, it just read it, but somehow my browser ended up with a root cookie and a copy of this cookie for the vdir too.

I am setting up a 3rd party website which makes heavy use of httpHandlers. When configured as a virtual directory under Default Site on a 2003/IIS6 machine, everything works as expected.
