iis ftp : Connect FTP virtual dir problem

I setup the FTP SITE as follows.

- FTP site (D:\Products)
- Virutal directory 1: "PDF" (D:\Web\pdf)
- Virutal directory 2: "MISC" (D:\Web\misc)

When user access the above ftp site (xx.xx.xx.xx), he can view the list of
files but cannot view the virtual directory name at this position. And he
needs to type "ftp site/pdf" to access pdf dir. How can make user view the
virtual directory list instead of typing directory name? Thanks.

That's the intended behavior I believe. It mirrors what happens elsewhere
in IIS.

I might put an empty folder by the same name in there, just so the user has
something to "see".

When they CD to that folder, they'll get put in the virtual folder not the
one in that tree. (I think, simple to try though)
