Here's an example/comparison of VBScript vs PHP's COM component to connect to an IIS Webserver.

The examples backup the IIS MetaBase (your server's website(s) configuration) in IIS.



VBScript:

  Dim obj, iFlags 

  Set obj = GetObject("IIS://LocalHost") 

  ' Backup to next available version number. 

  ' Set flags to save the metabase first and 

  ' force the backup even if save fails. 

  iFlags = (MD_BACKUP_SAVE_FIRST or MD_BACKUP_FORCE_BACKUP)

  obj.Backup "MyBackups", MD_BACKUP_NEXT_VERSION, iFlags

  ' Note: The above was copied from Microbucks.

  ' This is how you would have to do it.

  ' i.e. use the actual constant's value.

  iFlags = (2 or 4)  

  obj.Backup "MyBackups", &HFFFFFFFF, iFlags



PHP:

  <?php

  $obj = new COM("IIS://LocalHost")or die("Unable to instantiate IIS");  

  $err = com_invoke ($obj, "Backup", "MyBackups", "&HFFFFFFFF", 2|4 );

  $obj = null;

  print "err=".$err; // returns 0 on success

  ?>
