How do I make a virtual multi folder directory?

Hi Dorothy,

the IIS compatible with Windows Server 2007 is IIS 7.0 you need to upgrade your version

Then you should open IIS Manager

Start menu -> All programs -> Accessories -> Run
Type "inetmgr" -> ok

Expand the computer or the site you want to add in the virtual directory
click right on the site at the folder where you want to create the virtual directory -> new -> Virtual directory
in the wizard -> next
type the name of the new virtual directory you want to create -> next.
in the path box, browse the directory ( physical one) where the virtual directory is created then "next"
Select the permissions you want to give to users
Click "Next"-> " Finish"
