Are you using the Microsoft FTP Server that is part of IIS for your SBS
Install?

But even so we will continue.

You have found that the IIS Anonymous account for FTP is not working and
based on the message.

This could be that the FTP Server is configured to isolate users (a one time
change)

If this is the case you could create the following directory structure
inside of your FTP servers home directory.

c:\inetpub\ftproot
c:\inetpub\ftproot\LocalUser
c:\inetpub\ftproot\LocalUser\Public

Put a file into the Public folder like "Public User.txt"

Also make sure the IUSR_ account has read permissions to the folders...

Also make sure the FTP site has the "READ" option selected on the Home
Directory Page.
