Don't use a windows box as your FTP server as it won't support the "Rockridge" extensions that are needed to access all files on the CD (or CD image). (This is not addressing your original problem but will save your arse down the line. Usually for FTP servers under windows - at least the one's I've used - you specify a "root" for the server when configuring. For example, the one my machine equates c:\work\download to /, so when a user comes in they start at that point.)
