There could be a number of reasons all related to security.
What account is your FTP Site using for anonymous users? It is displayed in
the same area as the Allow Anonymous check box.
You then need to look at the home diretory tab and then open windows
explorer (not IE) to the same folder as is displayed in the ftp home
directory.
Check the security by right clicking on the folder and selecting properties
and selecting the Security Tab.
It sounds like that account (normally IUSR_COMPUTERNAME) does not have
rights to the FTP Home Directory.
The ISUR_ account could be explicitly denied access to the home directory.
Your Users group may not have the IUSR_ account as a member either via
direct membership or via the (dynamic) authenticated users group.
Is the home directory the default c:\inetpub\ftproot ?
If not change it back and test - if it works then it is a security issue
with the NTFS file permissions.

Thanks I appreciate that, but the real strange thing is that the server
currently in use has the "Allow Anonymous Users" checked and it still
prompts
for user name and password. Don't get me wrong, you fix works, but I
can't
help but wonder why the current one works with this option checked and the
new one will not. Any one have any ideas?

Open IIS Management tool
Select the ftp site and go to properties
On the security accounts table there is an option to allow anonymous
accounts.
Remove that check box.

We lease all of our machines, the one that hosts IIS is at end of lease
and I
am trying to configure a replacement machine. As far as I can tell I
have
everything set up identically on the replacement machine but the FTP
folder
that we use is not prompting for a username and password when I connect
to
the folder. I would think it is a intranet thing but when I try to
connect
to the old server's FTP folder it is prompting me for a username and
password. I am running Server 2000 SP4 on both.
I was not with the company when they set up the last one so I am at a
complete loss as to what to try next. Any help would be appreciated.
