Re: procedure to set up IIS 6 ftp for isolated users

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,

Glad to see the problem has ben figured out. FTP over SSL(FTPS) is
currently not supported by IE7 and Visual Studio clients. So if you want to
utilize the FTPS feature of FTP7, a third-party FTP client is required,
e.g: FileZllia. You need to select Explicit FTPS/FTPES mode in FileZilla
before connection. For your reference, below is some related info on this:

"FTPS (commonly referred to as FTP/SSL) is a name used to encompass a
number of ways in which FTP software can perform secure file transfers.
Each way involves the use of a SSL/TLS layer below the standard FTP
protocol to encrypt the control and/or data channels. It should not be
confused with either SSH file transfer protocol (SFTP), or FTP over SSH.

The most common uses of FTP and SSL are:

AUTH TLS, Explicit FTPS or FTPES, named for the command issued to indicate
that TLS security should be used. This is the preferred method according to
RFC 4217. The client connects to the server port 21 and starts an
unencrypted FTP session as
normal, but requests that TLS security be used and performs the appropriate
handshake before sending any sensitive data.

AUTH as defined in RFC 2228.

Implicit FTPS is an older, but still widely implemented style in which the
client connects to a different port (usually 990), and an SSL handshake is
performed before any FTP commands are sent. "

If you have any further question, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Have a great day.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang
