From: Jack on
I changed the default web site to point to the url /exchange which is a
virtual directory within the default web site. i answered yes to reflect
changes on the child objects, when i should've said no. iis 6.0 changed all
the virtual directories to /exchange. i can change the default web site back
to the directory wwwroot and it changes all the virtual directories back to
their original paths. when i try to change the default web site back to
/exchange, it changes all the virtual directories to /exchange without asking
me if i what to change the child objects. I also can't change individual
virtual directoires to their correct path. Any ideas?

I can only explain to you what happened; no idea how to fix it.

Basically, you've messed up the server all by yourself.

The first time you changed the redirection, IIS asked you if you wanted to
propagate changes because there were specific, customized changes in child
nodes. You said "yes", which completely wiped them out and there are no
customized changes in child nodes at this point.

The second time when you changed the redirection, since there were no
customized settings is child nodes, IIS will not ask anymore.

At this point, I have no idea what those customized changes are nor where
they are located. You will have to figure them out yourself since you
basically did this to yourself...
