Remarks

These enumerations were occasionally used with classes that became obsolete when Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 was released. Use the SPSiteCollection class or the SPWebApplication class for objects that can be used on SharePoint sites.

In Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, the term virtual server was replaced with the term web application, although you may still find them used interchangeably.
