Hi:
What are these DISCO files? Other than being they are the DISCOVERY files
used in UDDI.

I looked at several disco files in my wwwroot to the virtual directories I
have and each of them have a different set of tags. for example here is one
from my wwwroot directory:
===============================================
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<dynamicDiscovery xmlns="urn:schemas-dynamicdiscovery:disco.2000-03-17">
<exclude path="_vti_cnf" />
<exclude path="_vti_pvt" />
<exclude path="_vti_log" />
<exclude path="_vti_script" />
<exclude path="_vti_txt" />
</dynamicDiscovery>
===========================================================

and here is one from my webservice directory called MathService under
wwwroot
===================================================
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<dynamicDiscovery xmlns="urn:schemas-dynamicdiscovery:disco.2000-03-17">
<exclude path="_vti_cnf" />
<exclude path="_vti_pvt" />
<exclude path="_vti_log" />
<exclude path="_vti_script" />
<exclude path="_vti_txt" />
<exclude path="Web References" />
</dynamicDiscovery>
==============================================================
and here is one from one of my _vti_cnf subdirectory
=====================================
vti_encoding:SR|utf8-nl
vti_author:SR|IUSR_GANESH
vti_modifiedby:SR|IUSR_GANESH
vti_timecreated:TR|29 May 2001 17:33:01 -0000
vti_timelastmodified:TR|29 May 2001 17:33:01 -0000
vti_cacheddtm:TX|29 May 2001 17:33:01 -0000
vti_filesize:IR|302
vti_extenderversion:SR|4.0.2.4426
vti_backlinkinfo:VX|
========================================================

Can anyone explain in layman's terms about the differences?
