Well, first, it might be useful to figure out what exactly you mean by
"webroot" here. Generally, it means the folder that actually maps to a
web server's HTTP root directory. For example, if you have a single
web server that corresponds to a single domain, you might have
something like this:

c:\inetpub\wwwroot\

which maps to

http://www.yoursite.com/

In your above example, does the directory e:\webroot\www.abc.com map
to http://www.abc.com/? If so, the webroot is e:\webroot\www.abc.com,
not e:\webroot.

Assuming that your webroot is e:\webroot\www.abc.com, neither of those
will work. The second won't work no matter what your webroot is,
because a browser isn't going to be able to resolve a directory path
on the server. You'd have to create a virtual directory for each of
those virtual web servers (www.abc.com, www.def.com). Then, you'd be
able to resolve URLs using the virtual directory as your starting
point:
