IIS 6.0 and Windows 2003 FTP Permissions


IIS 6.0 and Windows 2003 FTP Permissions jcosta NO[at]SPAM thetek.com

iis ftp:
I have one computer running Active Directory and another running IIS.
In the past I would setup a new user and through the command prompt
set their FTPRoot and FTPDir which would allow them to browse to a
single folder in IIS on the second server. The problem I have now is
I have a user I want to give read only permissions to. I set them up
in Active Directory and Set their FTPRoot and FTPDir and then went to
the folder that i set for the user and only gave them read permissions
in the folder. When I log in using their name it brings me to the
right folder but the user can read and write to it even though they
should only be able to read it.

Any ideas??

Actually, I just removed that user from thier home folder and they
still have full access. Apprently local security permissions on the
folders are not based on user rights to those folders. The person is
brandnew in Active Directory and is not part of any other group. If
the folder security doesn't control access permissions is it Active
Directory? That is where I set up the users FTPROOT and FTPDIR
through a command prompt using. How do I limit the user to read only
through Active Directory?? Thanks!!

Check the ACL for the directory, make sure they don't belong to other group
which has access permission. or do a test - specifically addin - deny write,
do the user still able to write ? no, right.

Are you referring domain user account ? what ACL you have for the home
directory.
if user logged under domain account and you have configure NTFS properly,
users will not able to access resources that they are not suppose too....

use filemon from sysinternals.com to trace what user is actually access the
resource.

Ok let me clarify what I have done. I have two servers, server1
running IIS, server2 is running Active Driectory, both servers are
running windows 2003.

IIS on server1 has ftp set up. I made a new user in Active Directory
and though the command prompt I set thier FTPRoot and FTPDir like
this:

iisftp /SetADProp UserID FTPRoot f:\inetpub\wwwroot
iisftp /SetADProp UserID FTPDir JoeShmo

With JoeShmo being the web site in IIS. So now when UserID logs into
ftp://www.JoeShmo.com it brings them to the main root directory of
only JoeShmo for the entire wwwroot directory. This way UserID can
only see thier web site contents. The problem is that UserID can do
what ever they want in that folder and I can't see a way to limit
thier access to read only. It's not in folder permissions as far as I
can see. Here is MS web site regarding setting these varaibles.
Everything has worked fine until now when I have had to set
permissions.

Thanks!!

In that case, what permission do JoeShmo has over this
folder f:\inetpub\wwwroot\JoeShmo ???

full control ? you can configure whatever permissions you like the user to
have...

It doesn't seem to matter what permissions I give to that user for
that folder. I give them read only and they can still write to it. I
don't understand.

Look at the permissions on the folder. The user may be in a group
which has permission, or the user may not be who you think the user
is.
