iis ftp : Account to logon to ftp site

I have setup an FTP website on my server and can logon and upload/
download files which is great,
I have setup a user, ftp, on my system to be used to logon to the ftp
website (non anonymous logon).

However, in order to access the ftp website, the account name needs to
be ftp@<domain name>.local as the username and NOT just ftp (which I
would like it be be). However, I am able to logon as administrator,
without specifying the prefix @<domain name>.local,

I have tried deleting the User Logon Name and leaving User Logon Name
(pre Windows 2000) as per the Account tab on the user profile in AD
but this had no affect.


Any ideas on how to configure a ftp user so that all the need to type
in as a user is ftp????

Yes, the FTP server is within an AD domain.
I am not sure I am game enough to run these tools though. I can live
with the fact that I have to put domain name in, I was just wondering
if there was an easier fix???

is this ftp server inside any AD domain?
if not, doubt you need the @domain.com part.

you can also try this.
