in IIS 5.1 how do you setup multiple user login/passwd with each having thei
r own root directory?

[ Post a follow-up to this message ]

make a virtual directory with the same name as the login, for each user. You
can script the process so when you create a new user, you can make a home
dir on the network, and an FTP virutal dir (with the user name, and home it
to thier home dir).... when a user FTP's in, they will be dropped there by
default.

Ok I got several ftp accounts setuyp with user/passwd and it works great.
However, I do not want those users to show up on my XP login screen.
How can I remove those ftp users from that screen as they will never login t
o XP ?

Sorry excuse my french ;)
I will try to make it clear this time.

I have setup several user ftp accounts for remote access. Thus I had to crea
te XP accounts for each
of those ftp accounts. However, most of the XP user accounts will never be u
sed to login locally to the machine
by those users. All those accounts show up on the Windows login screen which
 I find somewhat clobbering.

Is there anyway not to show the local XP user account on the window logon sc
reen but still make them available
for ftp login ?
