It is basically a feature that gives you the ability to add some of the most requested modifications such as connectionstring, appsettings , membership and providers  to the Web.config files of all Web apps across the farm. The feature is scoped at farm level , but nothing stops you to change its scope to &#8220;Web Application&#8221; with some slight modifications in FeatureActivated and FeatureDeactivating event handlers. I have tested this feature for both WSS and MOSS and it should work just fine. That&#8217;s why I decided to use SPWebConfigModificationType.EnsureSection for the parent nodes instead of  SPWebConfigModificationType.EnsureChildNode.
