Hi everyone,
I have a Windows 2003 server that has IIS 6.0 installed on it. There is
already a default FTP site configured and works fine. However, I need to
create another FTP site on the server and give access to 4 users. There needs
to be a measure of security (bare minimum will do fine) and only the 4 users
should have access to this new ftp site. I'm not a network administrator but
I have been given this duty. The problem is I don't know how to do it--heck
of a problem huh?

Thanks in advance

Be aware that if you are using IIS for FTP then the accounts you create are
windows accounts, so do be sure that the users you are creating can't log
into your server!

If you want a more secure approach then its better to use a third party FTP
server - I'd recommend FTP Zilla Server, its free and it means your FTP
accounts and Windows accounts can be kept separate.
