Hi,

Since my FTP Site in IIS 6 (Windows 2003) is not working, my first
question
is, if IIS is a good technology to establish an FTP Server?
I guess, that the answer is "Yes", since IIS is a good product, but my
knowledge in creating an FTP-Server in IIS is not yet very high.

I have to create a FTP Site, where I want to grant write-permissions to a
specific user. Any other user should not have access.
I tried to do it like this:
I created a FTP Site with the wizard. I granted write and read
permissions.
Then I created a windows user. Now I right-clicked my FTP Site in IIS and
took the command "Permissions". I added the new user with write
permissions
for the FTP Site.

Obviously that is not the end of the work, since IE7 tells me, after
finding
the FTP Site from a remote computer, that I have not the rights, to see
anything in this FTP-folder.
Is there a predefined Windows User, which I have to add for the FTP folder
with write-access? Or what did I forget to do to have a proper FTP access
from a remote computer?

Thanks for your hint.

regards
Patrick
