    move companyweb to wwwroot

    Hi,
     
    I have an specific requirement to have the sbs sharepoint to be available publicically via https://FQDN, in the same way as the following:
     
     
    https://FQDN/remote = Remote Web Access
     
    I need sharepoint to be available at:
     
    https://FQDN = Sharepoint
     
    Can this be achieved by repointing the home directory of "Default Web Site"
     
    FROM:
    c:\inetpub\wwwroot
    TO:
    c:\inetpub\companyweb
     
    and replicating all other setting under that properties page ?
     
    Can I also drag the following into the "Default Web Site" from "Companyweb"
     
    _layouts
    _vti_bin
    _wpresources
    _aspnet_clients (allready exists in "Default Web Site"
    _vti_pvt
     
    Hope this makes sense.

    Sab,

    It is possible, but I would do it by creating a new sharepoint site and then importing the other items into it.  One thing I feel pretty confident of is that almost no-one wants to do this.  You can not simply rename an existing site as SharePoint is mainly stored in a database and you will upset it's view of the world.

    I'm afraid your going to be on your own.
