Hi, I installed IIS 6 FTP service on Win2003. Created a new ftp site,
created a new folder and configure FTP to use it. Created a new user named
ftpuser with a password and give this user the required read/write
permissons to access the ftp folder I created. Win firewall is disabled.
Anonymous access is disabled. When I try to access the server with both IE7
and ftp.exe it prompts for the user credentials. And accepts. Listing
directory files is ok. But when I try to download them with ie or ftp.exe
they return the access denied error. Server is a stand alone server and I
checked the directory permissions they're ok. But the ftp folder is not
shared! And another thing, default web site is not running because I do not
need it (hope it's not related with it) What am I doing wrong? Could you
please help me workaround this problem?

You shouldn't need a directory share.

One thing you might check doing is going into the permissions and removing
"inherit settings", copying them, and then adding the user with full access.

The only other thing I can think of is passive mode FTP (try toggling it
on/off).

Yes permissions are not inherited. (copied) But still cannot able to
download the files. No problem listing them

Problem resolved. For some reason permissions for the files in the directory
were wrong. Thank you...
