I don't know if it is a specific 'config' file you are looking for. Windows
does a lot of things out of the registry.

To change anything in IIS you can go to the 'IIS configuration snap-in'

This should be located in Administrative Tools.
Right-click the domain>Properties>(Website)Advanced
Here you can add host headers and port numbers.
