I&#39;ve figured out how to programatically migrate data, create virtual directories for each user however, I&#39;m&nbsp;having trouble figuring a good way to add&nbsp;WebDav&nbsp;authoring rules. I&#39;d like to add one authoring rule per virtual directory (more secure than how were currently configured) allowing the folder owner to read, write etc. </p> <p>However, so far the only way i see to&nbsp;programatically add authoring rules is to edit the&nbsp;applicationHost.xml and throw in an XML statement for each directory. Is there a good way to go about creating authoring rules (.net class library perhaps?) or am i stuck appending authoring rules to the&nbsp;applicationhost.xml configuration? &nbsp;If the only good way to go about this is to append to the applicaitonhost.xml is there a best pratice method for appending to the xml file? </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
