I have a windows 2003 webserver with 1 external IP. I have 4 websites on
this server using host headers (IIS6) and it works fine.

I can't figure out how to setup 4 ftp sites for these users to manager their
sites (like ftp.domain1.com, ftp.domain2.com and so on).

I have got some tips about using some ftp server software, and downloaded
"BulletProof FTP Server" and "ArGoSoft FTP Server". My problem is that I
dont know the basics for how this shall be configured. Can someone please
give me a basic guide for how this can be done?

Thanks alot :)

IIS FTP doesn't support host header features.
What you can do is create one ftp site and have many virtual directory.
In IIS 6.0, you can utilize the new feature - user isolation.
