Packaged IIS Properties
When you package a site using Site Packager, many of your IIS properties are included. It does not package an IIS Web site (such as the Default Web Site), but it does package the files in the physical root folder of the application and all of its child folders and files.
To view IIS properties for an application, folder, or file
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Commerce Server 2002, and then click Commerce Server Manager.
In the Commerce Server Manager window, expand Internet Information Services, expand the name of the Web server containing an application, expand the name of the IIS Web site in which the application resides, right-click the name of an application, folder, or file, and then click Properties.
The Properties dialog box for the application appears.
The following tables list the properties for the Virtual Directory and Directory Security tabs in the Properties dialog box, and indicate which ones are packaged when using Site Packager.

Note
- Nothing on the Documents, HTTP Headers, and Custom Errors tabs is packaged. The unpack.vbs script file for Commerce Server Business Desk adds custom errors for Business Desk after unpacking.
IIS Virtual Directories
If you have virtual directories located within the application, the virtual directory object and the folders and files in the path it points to will not be packaged. If you want to package these folders and files, copy them to a folder in the physical path of the application before packaging them.
NTFS Permissions
NTFS permissions and access control lists on folders and files are not packaged. You can use the unpack.vbs script or postsite.vbs script to apply NTFS permissions automatically after unpacking.
