Using Add-WebConfiguration to add properties to the FTP server

hi again,

i have examples on how integrate between powershell , ftp component using above cmdlet, configure properties of ftp below called <location path>. question is, if want reach parameter stored in <system.applicationhost> part of applicationhost.config file, how go doing that? example, have been trying update exit messages of ftp site (more fun sense..) cant working. supplied;

add-webconfiguration -filter "/system.applicationhost/sites/site[@name='myftpsite']/ftpserver/messages" -value @{exitmessage='work_baby'}  -pspath iis:\ -location myftpsite

i not sure parameter location (it looks wrong)... more or less, know how reach / manipulate settings of ftp server if located in location path part of applicationhost.config file, if want set residing under <system.applicationhost> off track....

regards, sausage eater.
