Hello fellow MCNers and Season's Greetings, I am wrestling with something that many of you may well already have figured out. We host our own ftp server and currently we have setup a number of ftp accounts which various departments utilize to make images available for publications etc. What we want to do is deliver images that the public order on our website and make them available for them to download from our ftp server. Now this in and of itself isn't difficult but we want the department selling the image to manage the user name and password administration and this is where I'm scratching my head. Our server is a windows 2003 box using iis and the ftp service and it is sitting in our DMZ and therefore not part of our Active Directory. What I really want is some form of portal that a "super user" could log into to admin say a half dozen user ids and generate passwords. This they could do on either a daily/weekly basis or on demand. What I don't want is for them to have to Remote into the server or be an admin of the server to assign passwords. I'd rather a front end portal or similar that they could use.
If any of you have suggestions or ideas about how you and your organization deliver images to your public I'm all ears. Thanks, Chris Chris Heazell, MCSE, CNA Network Administrator Glenbow Museum p 403 268 4241 f 403 265 9765 http://www.glenbow.org<http://www.glenbow.org/>
