Win2k IIS5 FTP Server Error
|
|
|
| I am trying to set up virtual directory on the ftp server
called backup. The actual directory is located on a
network share on another computer. I am able to access
the share from run by typing \\machine\sharename without
password. However, when I was setting up virtual
directory it asked for the password( I assume it is the
login to the machine where the actual share resides). I
provided these credentials (eventhough I don't understand
why as I am able to see it from the machine without
credentials).
After creating virtual directory, I get error stop sign
under virtual directory icon.
When I try to connect to this ftp site, I get 550: backup:
logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance

The FTP login account must have access to the files/folders on the
share. Check permissions on everything, and make sure the remote
server is validating the user who actually logs into the FTP site.
