Can't tell you the first error, but the last one you made was
neglecting to tell us the operating system. :)

The process is different on different OS's. In Server 2003 for
example you may have the wrong file path. You may not have correct
permissions on the files themselves.

If you're not already, use the command line FTP client to test with.

I am a new user to IIS. I am having grave difficulty connecting to my FTP
site.

I first created a shared folder with a sub-folder to house my ftp files. I
then created a user in AD and using the iisftp script assigned the ftproot
and ftpdir. Then I gave that user modify permission to the shared folder as
well as the subfolder (inherited). I created a FTP site with AD
authentication. When I try to acess the site, I am prompted with a login. I
enter the username and password. Then I am stopped with the following error
message:

550 /gastroftp The system cannot find the file specified.

Where did I go wrong?

Sorry. The OS is Server 2003. Is the IISFTP the command line client you
are referring to?

I did the following. Does this mean that the boeuser can connect to the
site? I can also connect to the site using FTPpro and the boeuser
credentials. What I can't do is connect via IE url = ftp://agaiis/gastroftp.
Any suggestions?

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>iisftp /s agaiis /u boeuser /p
password
/query "gastroftp"
WARNING: Using local machine will cause supplied credentials to be ignored.
Connecting to server ...Done.
Site Name (Metabase Path) Status IP Port

GastroFTP (MSFTPSVC/45500275) STARTED ALL 21

command line ftp client = ftp.exe

Can you login via ftp.exe?
