Set up New ftp site 1

[windowsfan]

I want to set up secure FTP site on DMZ not part of domain. I want clients to hit the new ftp site using secure FTP and I want to set up notfication to internal users and clients to let them know the status of FTP transaction.

I also want to set up automation to copy files from FTP server (on DMZ) to File server on the network (internal network).

Please help make decsioin on how to proceed. currently I have FTP server which is on internal network and it's not SFTP. Automation and notification are in place but, to make it secure I want to move to DMZ with SFTP protocol.

SFTP is not supported in IIS. You'd need to use a 3rd party application to use SSL over FTP.

Hi SteveHewitt,
Any help on SFTP on IIS with third party protocol or using other OS for SFTP

Look into setting up an OpenSSH server and then use an SFTP client or using SCP for file copy

I would use ASP for this. You can then easily use SSL.

I hope you find this post helpful.

what is ASP?
I wan to use my own ftp server as we have many clients that use our ftp server for uploading files for printing and I want to make this a sftp server.

Thanks

ASP = Active Server Pages

Users would access files via a web browser.

An example is here:

http://www.thespidersparlor.com/publicdownloads

The links to files on that page are created on the fly. I use other code (not public for my need) to easily browse to a file and upload it to the site. Same thing as FTP, but I could use SSL for encryption if I wanted to so it is secure. Furthermore with ASP I can also restrict via user name and passwords if I wanted to.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Mark

Hi itsp1965,
Will openSSH support automatic email notification when files are received?

Don't know offhand. You may want to check the OpenSSH website for more info
