We have been consolidating our Windows FTP Servers into a single Serv-U
system here.  Serv-U, in my experience, is far more flexible.

For a virtual folder to show up to the user in a directory listing, an
actual folder with the same name has to exist on the server.  The
"virtual" part only kicks in when they try to CD to that folder.  This
is one of many weird quirks you will run into.  You're not in Kansas
anymore...
