Hi
We are using IIS 6.0 and have a slight problem. When we remove anonymous
ftp access from web directory, it prevents anyone writing to the directory.
The only way we seem to be able to get write access for anyone is to
re-enable anonymous ftp. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Dave Quinn.

Hi David,

Check NTFS permissions on the file system. The user that is logging on the
FTP server need write permissions on NTFS to be able to write to the server.
IIS will honor NTFS permissions settings (same goes for Web service not just
FTP service).
