iis ftp : "To view this FTP site in Windows Explorer, click Page, and then click Open FTP Site in Windows Explorer"
We have an IIS site running under windows 2003 server. People who have
"upgraded" to IE7 are now upset that they get "To view this FTP site in Windows Explorer, click Page, and then click Open FTP Site in Windows Explorer" when they go to our ftp site. Is there something we can change in IIS to correct this so we don't piss off our clients? Thanks
Nope. this is IE7 issue, it doesn't behave as IE6, hence it is telling you
to use Windows Explorer instead. -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.iis.net/ http://www.iis-resources.com/ http://msmvps.com/blogs/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "boe" <boe_d@nospamhotmail.com> wrote in message news:eBX609lNHHA.320@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > We have an IIS site running under windows 2003 server.

Thanks - I'd say it is both an IE7 issue and an IIS issue as I don't have
this issue when I go to apache FTP servers.

LOL... this is really IE issue. As IIS Ftp was not the one changing.

Thanks. Yeah, it makes sense but it is frustrating especially since the
instructions are a little off when my clients hit my site. I guess I should just ask how to place better instructions for the client to see if they go to my FTP site.

FTP root at ftp.widgets.com
To view this FTP site in Windows Explorer, click Page, and then click Open FTP Site in Windows Explorer. That is what I'm saying/agreeing with. Many end users don't know the difference between Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer. I'm sure if I asked all the employees at my company to open Windows Explorer - half would open Internet Explorer. I'd rather just say - something like - This is a secure site, click on View - Open FTP site in Windows Explorer - they wouldn't have to leave the application and open Windows Explorer - chances are they wouldn't know they had - and I would have to assume they had the address bar visable in Windows Explorer.

Mm... if they use IE7, I believe they already got the msgs shown in your
subject, asking them to use Windows Explorer instead. If normal ftp client, you can configure ftp welcome msgs, etc. -- Regards, Bernard Cheah http://www.iis.net/ http://www.iis-resources.com/ http://msmvps.com/blogs/bernard/ [quoted text, click to view] "boe" <boe_d@nospamhotmail.com> wrote in message news:OdCMGJQOHHA.992@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Thanks.
