Advanced IIS Q

[hydr0p0nix]

I am trying to write VB code to make a directory on an ftp server, make a username and a pass, and set permissions (read write, minus execute, etc)
Does anyone have any *clue* as to where I should start looking or any code that could help me out with this..
Is there a DLL included with IIS that I can use??
Microsoft KB articles that tell you how?
Or do I need to use DDE or OLE to have the asp/vb application talk to IIS/FTP server itself??
Anything will help as I am searching the net as I finish this for some nfo, thanx!

What I dug up, is that to do that, you need to use the Active Directory that IIS uses to store usernames and passes with the service. the ADSI is just an interface to this Active Directory and you need an ADSI Provider to integrate that into your VB program..
Next Question: How come IIS and ADSI doesn't turn up *anything* relevant in all the vb sites I've been to so far?? that one article I found on it can be seen here:

Any ideas?? (I figured I'd update my post to kinda keep it on top of the forum =p.. lol) I'll stop, I'll stop, I just need to know where to start you know??

I would also really love to know how to do this on PWS 4.0. Also, does anyone know of antwhere that gives you a free static IP address???

I plan to move over to IIS 5.0 soon though i'm just using pws to debug...
Lets see.. free static ip..
i think dyndns and cjb.net offer a service where
when you login you can set it up so someone could type
http://www.hydr0p0nix.dyndns(or, cjb).net
and it would refer them to your IP
128.666.666.69
see?
you can't have a REAL static IP unless you pay money for it.. or you are online for a real real real long time * i believe *
or... you have cable access or adsl and are on thenet 24/7 by default, your IP would end up being static.. maybe you should look into isps as well
