Setting up an FTP using Isolate users using Active Directory

| I read the documentation about this, but it does not tell you what I need to
put into the FTProot or FTPDir. Basically I want to be able to redirect
the user to their home directory. Are there any whitepapers on this?

| Bernard,
That article really isn't clear. Really all the documentation on
this subject is really vague in describe how one would do this.
What we want to do is set the FTP site up on a front-end server (web
server), this server would then go to a back-end server (file and print).
Example.
USER1 needs to get to his \\servername\sharename\user1
When I know that we have to populate the following fields in the
active directory for this user, they are msIIS-FTPRoot and msIIS-FTPDir,
what would we put in these fields to get this to work.

The FTPRoot and FTPdir get concatenated to the user folder, as in
FTPRoot\FTPDir. Set the FTPRoot to the folder root of where you want
the user, and FTPDir to the last directory. I don't believe you can
use sharenames though, so if in your case:
\\servername\sharename
Is really c:\data\users
The to go to \\servername\sharename\user1 you would use:
FTPRoot: c:\data\users
FTPDir: user1
Don't use the trailing backslash on the FTPRoot path. Make sure the
user has appropriate rights to the folder as well, and that the folder
exists.

| Jeff,
These directories actually will not be located on the front-end server,
that is why I want to use \\servername\sharename
In the documentation it states you can use UNC naming convention.

| We think we resolved this issue.
But the documentation is lacking on this subject.
