Dont bog down Windows with all these users. If you use IIS ftp, plan
carefully by assigning your users to groups. The IHTK @
www.intrafoundation.com is a set of custom tags that will let you
programatically set up IIS ftp accounts, directories, and so on.
You might want to think about using an ftp server other than IIS, there are
many others out there that are scriptable and have their own databases of
users, and not relying on the user having a windows account.
