FTP User Isolation with IIS 5.0


FTP User Isolation with IIS 5.0 Steve Harp

Hi All,

I'm trying to setup an FTP site on Win2k Server. I think the IIS
version is 5.0 (whatever comes with Win2k Server). With the FTP
server software I've used in the past, it was very easy to create
users and assign them to a folder. When a user logs in, he only sees
his own folder and any sub-folders. He cannot see the ftproot unless
that is specified as his personal root folder.

Is there a way to make IIS behave this way? If so, how? I would
appreciate any information for URL anyone could offer.

Thanks,

Hello Steve.

AFAIK this is not possible with the Microsoft FTP service regardless of
version. I have a similar post regarding chrooted environments in ms
ftp on IIS 6 and the general consensus is that this functionality does
not exist. I found it hard to believe this at first, but that disbelief
faded the more I worked with the windows server platform. There are
alternative ftpd's for windows that work properly

FTP user isolation can be found with IIS 6. IIS 5 you can only do username
redirect to their own folders.
