Scripting to change the IP address a particular site is bound to.

Hi,

is it possible to have a script which changes which IP address a
particular site is bound to? For example, if I have a website called
'Phil', which is currently bound to (all unassigned), is there any way
of changing that to be bound to a particular IP address without using
the IIS admin console?

Kind regards,
Phil.

Re: Scripting to change the IP address a particular site is bound to.

Yes - you can use IIS ADSI provider to do this. Alternatively there is a
built in script (adsutil.vbs) located in c:\inetpub\adminscripts that makes
this easy to do. You can get/set any property in the IIS metabase using this
tool. From memory you'd need to update the bindings and secureBindings
properties

Cheers
Ken

And if you want to edit the Binding/SecureBinding properties instead
of re-assigning the entire list of possible site bindings, you want to
use a tool like:

That's exactly the sort of thing I was looking for, thanks for your
response.

cheers,
Phil.
