I am trying to write a script that will automate the locking down of IIS on our servers.

What I need to do is change the MaxConnections from 1000 to 100 while keeping all the other information intact. I just need an example of how to do this then i will be able to go from there.

There is another element call <IIsWebServer> but it doesnt contain the same information. So I dont want it to change the information in there....

If I am confusing let me know I will try and explain better.

Do a search for XMLDOM since that would probably be the safest way for you to modify the XML file. Where is this file stored on a server so I can see what it looks like in its entirety?

Typically, editing XML documents is very easy. However, changing this particular value is a little tricky because you're not changing the value of an XML element, but rather the value of one of its attributes. In any case, here's the code to do the trick. Cheers.
