appcmd help

[Migration User]

Does anyoyone know how to target the package server (PS) virtual directory and not just the "Default Web Site' request filter section?  Here is a script I'm using: 

appcmd set config /section:system.webServer/security/requestFiltering -fileExtensions.[fileExtension='.cer'].allowed:true

The script runs fine and targets the "Default Web Site" request filter section to allow a .cer extension (this is embedded into one of our applications and it getting blocked).  However, what I want to do is not target the default web site but to drill down under that and target the request filters only for the PS virtual page (default web site>Altiris>PS ----request filters).

Any help would be appreciated!

Something like:
appcmd set config "Default Web Site\Altiris\PackageShare" /section:system.webServer/security/requestFiltering -fileExtensions.[fileExtension='.cer'].allowed:true

The specific site/directory is placed in "quotes" after config and before your switches.  I haven't tested this as I've only had to do this manually for a small number of sites.

Yeah, I've poured over the technet articles and tried your above syntax, even changing the syntax for ITMS to "PS" from "package share" and no luck.... I get errors saying it cannot find the site object with identifier "ERROR ( message:Cannot find SITE object with identifier "Default Web Site\Altiri
s\PS". )
 

Or I get this error with the command you provided me:

ERROR ( message:Cannot find SITE object with identifier "Default Web Site\Altiri
s\PackageShare". )
 

That's the problem I've been running into... getting the filtering to work with the targeted virtual page and correct syntax....

Well, I changed the syntax around a bit to use forward slashes instead of back slashes, I'm getting closer but now getting this error:

C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv>appcmd set config "Default Web Site/Altiris/PS" /sec
tion:system.webServer/security/requestFiltering -fileExtensions.[fileExtension='
.cer'].allowed:true

ERROR ( message:Cannot find requested collection element. )

Got it working... and hidden segments as well.

example:  appcmd set config "Default Web Site/Altiris" /section:requestfiltering /-fileExtensions.[fileextension='.browser']
