    Hello lover,


    The steps are almost the same as in Windows 2000.

    ==========================
    Create FTP User
    ==========================

    1. Log into Windows 2003 Server using MS Terminal Service or login from local.
    2. Right Click "My Computer", choose "Manage"
    3. Expand the "Computer Management" console:

    Local > Local Users and Groups > Users

    4. Right Click on "Users", Add Users

    ==========================
    Create FTP Virtual Directory
    ==========================
    1. Open IIS 6.0
    2. Expand IIS Console
    Local > FTP Sites > Default FTP Site
    3. Right Click on "Default FTP Site", new virtual directory
    4. Enter "Alias" name, put it as exactly the same as the username you have just created and click Next.
    5. Browse to the directory where you wish to allow this FTP user to access to.
    6. Click Next, enable "Read" and "Write" privileges.
    7. Click Finish

    ==========================
    Create Permissions on FTP Folder
    ==========================
    1. Right click on your FTP folder and add the FTP user you have just created above to this folder.
    2. Enable full permissions or any permission set you wish to create.

    Done!

    You're Welcome. You might want to look at Serv-U FTP.

    Hi brian, is the directory permission correctly configured for the FTP user ?
