Web App with IIS

I posted the following over the holidays and had one person try to help.
Unfortunately, I made no progress and still need assistance:

I'm a beginner and trying to learn. I have a half dozen websites that I first
configured in just html. Then I converted them to ASP.Net and it took help
from Microsoft to get IIS to recognize the applications.

Then I lost my server and had to rebuild. Now that I have, I continue to
have the following problem:

The website I have under the default website oon IIS works fine. However,
the others, which I defined, each as their own website, fail to run. I get a
configuration error that "It is an error to use a section registered as
allowDefiniteion='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error
can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application
in IIS." Then it displays the authentication section, whether forms or none.

I have gone into IIS and reset the website applications several times. There
appear to be no real differences between the virtual directory I defined for
the default website and those I defined for other websites. And indeed, IIS
seems to have no trouble finding the correct webconfig files each time.

Can anyone help? I've spent a couple of days trying to puzzle through this
and am completely stumped. Thanks!
