We set something similar up years ago just using IIS, its still active but I don't remember all the details of the top of my head we did use a single IP address Home directory is E:\ftpserver\ClientFTP
If you login at the server and go to that directory you see a directory named Localuser under that you see the individual client folders and the names match the username they login with When they login they go directly to their folder and cannot migrate away -----Original Message----- From: Angus Scott-Fleming [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, August 11, 2010 12:38 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: FTP server software suggestions On 11 Aug 2010 at 12:36, Craig Sterley wrote: > Need to host 5 different FTP servers, each with their own IP. > Currently IIS on w2k3 and having issues where users are connecting > with IE and being dumped into the root directory of the site.

Looking at > FileZilla at the moment, but don“t anyway to accomplish this. Does it have to be a Windows box? Can you run 5 different instances of FileZilla Server in 5 different VMs, each of which can only "see" what you want to expose? That would certainly limit your exposure, although I think you'd need 5 Windows OS licenses (unless you ran FileZilla in WINE on Linux VMs -- it's gold-rated there: WineHQ - FileZilla FTP Server http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=8230 ). No personal experience with these, but this looks like it will work for 99 euros up front and 39 euros each year: zFTPServer http://www.zftpserver.com/index.php/base/downloadBuy This old freeware standby has users and limits their access to folders, but I don't think it supports multiple IPs: warftp.org http://www.warftp.org/ And of course there's your old friend Wiki List of FTP server software - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_FTP_server_software -- Angus Scott-Fleming GeoApps, Tucson, Arizona 1-520-290-5038 Security Blog: http://geoapps.com/ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ Regards, David Herrick Chief Financial Officer - Executive Vice President Names in the News 180 Grand Avenue Suite 1545 Oakland, CA 94612 415 989-3350 415 433 7796 Fax [email protected] www.namesinthenews.com This email and any attached files are confidential and intended solely for the intended recipient(s).
