Author default web site / metabase identifier 1 / delete / re-create

Hi,

First thing I always did after installing IIS is deleting the default web
site. Now in IIS 6.0 that one (the default web site) has a new config
option: the Metabase Identifier 1

Some programs do use the default website to add a virtual directory to it,
but with IIS 6.0 I can't set the default web site anymore. Now those
programs add their virtual dir. to a (in my eyes) random website in my
configuration. I don't want that. I want to control the web site where the
virtual dirs are added to.

So, my question is: how can I set a new default web site after I deleted the
one with MB identifier 1. (Or re-create the default website with identifier
1)

So the result (diddleysquat) of my previous search for two days in a row on
google, altavista, news groups, support.microsoft.com was right.

With IIS 6.0 you can't re-create the default web site with MB identifier 1
after deleting it.

Wow! Great. Something to think about for the next update MikeRowSoft! Oops,
somewhere there a typo in the brand name I think, can't figure out exactly
where.. ;-)
