    What are you asking? There is a way to do this with ADSI, WMI and even some
    other means (like changing the metabase yourself). The fact that you're
    suggesting those seems to imply that you know how to use them, so do it. The
    "key" is the path to the file, in a web context, such as this:

    W3SVC/1/Root/vdir/leadnote.asmx

    Use your favorite technology to set metabase properties you need.
