Free Windows FTP Server?
Do they actually exist? I've done a google, a forum search and haven't found a single one? If they do exist, are they reliable? If they don't whats the second best option?
Thanks,
Alex

IIS is included, that's unless you're running XP rather than server ...

We've been using Filezilla FTP Server on a fairly busy FTP server (~500 GB/month) for a couple of years, and couldn't be happier.
