As with most other URLs, you can specify a non-default port by adding it
after the host identifier, separated by a colon.

So, for instance, ftp://ftp.example.com is really short-hand for
ftp://anonymous:password@ftp.example.com:21

Hi,

I set up two or more of IIS ftp server at my home network by using
different listening port. I can tell people with IE using the URL
ftp://ftp.freefree.net to access the default port 21 ftp server but did not
know how to form the ftp URL for port differ than the 21. Please give me
the answer. Thanks in advance.
