Hi,

I am having trouble configuring access to an FTP.  I have Windows Server
2003 and have installed FTP.  In IIS I have checked both Read and Write
access for the site.  I have disabled Annonymous access.  I want to secure
it using NTFS permissions.  So on the permissions tab I have made sure that
I have Full Control.  I then browse to the site and logon as myself.  It
then tells me that I don't have permission to PUT anything on the site.
What do I have to do to enable myself Read and Write access to the site and
deny everyone else?

TIA,

Jarryd

How are you denying other users?

Remember: NTFS Permissions the most restrictive applies.

If you deny DOMAIN\USERS (then you have denied yourself since you are a
member of that group) and you deny yourself even if you grant yourself full
control.

The easiest way to do what you want is to remove all accounts from the
permissions list.

Then add your acount back in and grant it Change rights.

Then add the SYSTEM account and grant it full control (Not required to work
but works better because SYSTEM needs control)

Another better way is this:

Create a new group called FTP Read/Write and and yourself as a user
Then grant the permissions to the group

Hope this helps.

Thanks dude.  I can't believe it was a simple as that.
