Folder Mapping

Hello Guys,

I've got IIS6 configured on my Win2k3 server and its hosting a web application i'm developing.

I have a large amount of media such as audio and images that will be placed onto the site by users, and for basic server managabilty i have this uploaded to a different drive to where my site root is.

I need to have this media accessible for diplay on the website though, and after discussing this on another forum is was suggested that i create a Mapping for that folder.

So i can continue to use the src for my images as http://www.mysite.com/images/image.jpg and yet the server is actaly drawing the media from D:\mediastore\images\production\image.jpg.

Any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks,

Rob

Thanks for that buddy,

That makes perfect sense and worked like a charm.
