SUMMARY
This article describes concerns relating to the location of the content root of your web server.



MORE INFORMATION
Web servers can work with different virtual server directory structures than the FrontPage Server Extensions require. Virtual server directories should not be configured under the root directory for another server. The following configurations will not work with the FrontPage Server Extensions because they contain nested directories for the virtual servers:

Server Running on Windows NT

Root Web c:\inetsrv\wwwroot

Virtual Server 1 c:\inetsrv\wwwroot\virsvr1

Virtual Server 2 c:\inetsrv\wwwroot\virsvr2

Server Running on UNIX

Root Web /usr/local/www

Virtual Server 1 /usr/local/www/user1

Virtual Server 2 /usr/local/www/user2
