iis ftp:
The logon dialog is controlled by the web browser (IE in this case)

You could put a REALM in to display a small message.

Custom/Modify Login box Chris Hanley

Running IIS 6.0 on Win2003 server.
We are using virtual directories on our ftp site.
I would like to know if there is a way to modify or customize the login box
that users see when logging onto an ftp site.
I have configured the "banner message" in the properties of the site, but
that may not be viewable, (depending on the users ftp client.
I would like to add a disclaimer/notification that users see when they login
via IE.
Is there anyway to modify the default login/authentication box?

I have a simple vbscript that would popup a message box, but I'm not sure
how to apply that to a remote login.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

It is an IE generated logon dialog so you have no control over it.

I'm not sure if that would work. I think the browser maybe calls a
differernt authentication/login box? This is the box that gets called now
when a client logs in using a IE.

Maybe a simpler method would simply be to direct users to a website that
explains policy and acceptable use, then link them to the login from there?

I would think that doing this type of thing would be relatively common?
