I'm working on a simple application that needs to view the queue of the IIS
SMTP server ie. The list of files in the C:\Inetpub\mailroot\Queue
directory... Now I want to retrieve the location of the queue directory
programmatically from IIS using ADSI (using the QueueFolder property which I
think exists?)
I decided to use directory services in .Net with poor results (I've never
used them before). I can't seem to get a list of properties for the object
though (it's as if the properties aren't exposed in .Net at all)
Here's the code snippet:
smtpServiceEntry = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/SMTPSVC/1");
// will fail on the next list and debug reveals that there are no property
values
// at all.
foreach (string propName in smtpServiceEntry.Properties.PropertyNames)
{
Console.WriteLine("propName: " + propName);
}
As a background to this, originally I based it on some source code I had
from a while back (written in horrible ASP by someone else...):
<%
Dim fso, f, f1, fc, s, IIsObj
Set IIsObj = GetObject("IIS://LocalHost/SMTPSVC/1")
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fso.GetFolder(iisobj.QueueFolder)
Set fc = f.Files
Count = 0
For Each f1 in fc
s = s & f1.name
s = s & "<BR>"
Count= Count+1
Next
Msgbox "There are " & Count & " Files in the Queue Folder" & vbcrlf & s
%>
Any know what I'm doing wrong (or another way to do this in .Net?) any help
would be much appreciated.
