Hi,
You basically have two options:
1) If what you are trying to do is achievable by setting and getting the IIS configuration properties, you can use the Get / Set IIS Property MSIcode command and ser the values you want.
2) If what you are trying to do is not achievable by setting IIS properties (doesn't sound like it is), you would have to call the IIS command line management tools from IA using the Run Program MSIcode command. Use that command to run the command line IIS tools and pass the appropriate parameters to achieve what you want.
