Script to "check" read/write checkbox -- iis ftp

In the Properties for an FTP site on the "home directory" tab. There are
checkboxes for Read/Write/LogVisits. In IIS 5.0 when you used mkftpsite.vbs,
those checkboxes would default to be checked and the logged in user could
read/write provided they were logged in as could read/write to the directory.

In IIS6.0 (iisftp.vbs) when you create a new site (no user isolation), the
site created does not have those checkboxes checked and there doesn't seem to
be an option to check them. When a user logs in they get access denied if
they try to write. If I manually check those boxes it works as in IIS 5.0.

Is there any way using a script to get those checked? I looked at the
properties script (adsutil.vbs) and it doesn't give the option there either,

Hello Mark B,
What about scripting it for Virtual Directory?
As i'm working a batch file that create user, directory(set acl) and virtual
directory. But, the only issue that i still get is that i have to use the GUI
to check "write". I'd like to change it trough command line.

Thanks

You should be able to specify the path to the virtual directory as below.

cscript adsutil.vbs SET MSFTPSVC/1/root/[VIRTUAL DIRECTORY]/AccessWrite
"true"

note: Change the 1 for the actual FTP Instance ID
