iis ftp : Help Needed On Using FTP User Isolation


Willie
11/22/2004 12:09:23 AM
can't login to my user's folder using FTP.exe

E:\Inetpub\LocalUser\user1
E:\Inetpub\LocalUser\user2

maybe let's start from here:
1.) how to create and setup user account in Local Users And Groups?
2.) how to setup Folder's Permmission?

I think I know how to setup IIS for FTP sites.

ERROR MSG:
530 User willie cannot log in, home directory inaccessible.
Login failed.
I think something wrong with the permmission setting.

Let me tell you what I have done.

1.) Create new user "User1 and Password"
User1 properties under Profile Local Path:
E:\Inetpub\LocalUser\User1

2.) Create new ftp site for User1 "All IP and Port 21"
FTP Local Path: E:\Inetpub\LocalUser\User1

3.) Folder automatically created.
Permmission Checked looks OK.

4.) try to login get error msg

I guess I did follow all the step in all guide or books.
what's wrong????

KB is knowledge article -
How To Set Up Isolated Ftp Site
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=555018

you are using IIS6, right ? and using normal isolation ?

get filemon (sysinternals.com) run in on the ftp server, then login again.
look at the log file and check what directory or path ftp is trying to
access.

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=201771 works for me.

but using User Isolation not working.
I am using IIS6 with Windows Server 2003 DE.

where to start?
Create User Account?
Or Setup FTP?
Create Folder?

FileMon.exe help me solved my problems.

FTP Home Directory should be "E:\rootftp" not E:\rootftp\LocalUser\User
Thanks Bernard!

In that case, you are not using user isolation features !
