Greetings,

I've pondered this, looked at Google searches, and looked through
knowledge bases galore, and still haven't arrived at a preventative
solution to an annoying problem: unwanted anonymous uploads.

I host an anonymous FTP server that we need to keep open. I'm using
WS_FTP Server, and have configured it so that there are two virtual
directories, incoming and outgoing. On the incoming directory, I've set
it up so that it is write-only and "blind" so that the uploader can't do
a directory listing.

I've noticed that I get an obscene amount of "Tagged" directories in
that incoming folder, by idiots who want to try and use my server as a
staging area for their data, none of which matters a lick of spit to me,
since they can't download any of it...

So I'm wondering if someone else has run into this problem and fashioned
a solution. I'd like to continue to use the Ipswitch product, but I'd
consider alternatives, as long as there's a good management interface.
:)

Cheers,

--R
