Create FTP site using IIS 7

[testman1]

I have tried to create a ftp site with three Virtual Directories using iis 7. Each Virtual Directory will need a different Windows domain user's authentication.

I have worked on it for three days, and I couldn't figure it out.

Thanks in advance for your help.

What can't you figure out about it? Are you having trouble creating the virtual folders? Security settings? The automatic virtual folder change directory on logon?

Thanks for your reply.
I was finally able to get a ftp site with three virtual directories up and running using iis7. The real problem was how to get each virtual directory to have a different username and password using Windows authentication from the domain.
It sounds easy, but it turned out that if I don't have all of the username's and password's able to access the default ftp site itself, then the individual usernames’ and passwords for each virtual directory don't work.

That doesn't sound right, but that was the only way that I could get it to work.

Does that sound right to you, or did I do something wrong?
I hope that I didn't confuse you.

Correct.

What you do is give the users or groups acces to the parent site and make it's home path some temp directory somewhere that contains no items. You then create virtual folders underneath the parent site that is exactly the same name as the login. When the user logs in to the ftp, they will be automatically directed to that virtual folder. Permissions can be placed on the virtual folders to ensure someone doesn't change directories to another persons folder, etc.

Thanks, I will give that a try.
