Background: Server 2003 Standard, running IIS 6.0.
I've set up a website, and copied a few test files to it over the LAN;
everything works fine, and if I access the server via it's internet address
it all still works (tested by a colleague in the US).
I want to set up FTP so I can upload files remotely using Dreamweaver.
The files are setup as follows;
FTP Sites
--> Test Site
Properties:
IP Address: (All Unassigned)
TCP Port: 2101
Anonymous connections is Unchecked
Home Directory is located on this computer, at 'E:\test'
Permissions Read, Write and Log Visits are all checked.
Directory Security: all computers will be granted access.
When I look at the Permissions tab, the user (testadmin) is shown as having
Full Control. This user is also a member of the computers Administrators
group.
When I FTP using Dreamweaver, I just get the error message 'index.htm - an
error occurred - cannot put index.htm. Access Denied. The file may not
exist, or there could be a permission problem.'
If I FTP from the command line, it shows the correct banner text for this
ftp , then when I enter the password it gives me the error '530: user
testadmin cannot log in, home directory inaccessible. Login failed'
I'm stuck now. I don't know if I'm an inch away from a solution, or several
miles away and travelling in the wrong direction. All I want to do is upload
my files to the server...
Regards,
Pete.
