Hi Greg,
I don't have an IIS Server at work but this guy seems to be doing something
similar and he claims that it works. It seems like he's looking higher up
the tree or something (this might be an IIS6 vs 7 thing)
foreach (DirectoryEntry Site in new DirectoryEntry("IIS://" +
System.Environment.MachineName + "/w3svc").Children)
{
if (String.Compare(Site.SchemaClassName, "IIsWebServer",
StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine(Site.Properties["ServerComment"].Value.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(Site.Properties["LogFileDirectory"].Value.ToString());
}
}
