administrator access

Morning folks,

I seem to be having an issue with how FTP was setup on our system
running server 2003. It was setup using the non-AD user isolation.
All the users work fine except for the administrator. When I try to
login as administrator it gives me:

530 User administrator cannot log in, home directory inaccessible.

I want the admins home directory to be the "root" ftp dir (the one just
above the individual user's dirs). Our current structure is:
D:
- ftp
- Localuser
- user1dir
- user2dir

So when I login as admin I want to have it drop me in Localuser. Any
help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Matt
