Can I isolate users for ftp with a single ip?

[roblasch]

I am running w2k3 with iis 6. I am trying to set up one directory below the root that has access for a single user. I want that user to have access only to that single directory (and any folders below). I only have one ip address. Is this possible? Thanks

Is the user account part of your AD domain?
By "IP" do you mean that your server only has one IP address or you have the IP address that they will be connecting from?

There is one ip address for the server. The user is part of the domain. I am not sure what AD domain means.

AD is Active Directory. An Active directory domain is synonymous with Domain in a Windows 2000 and 2003 networked environment.
Am trying to get my IIS 6 FTP service to work properly and allow me to login, will post back when I have figured it out.

Try setting appropriate NTFS permissions on the folders. You will need the NTFS rights to Traverse Folder / Execute file at the top level to allow them to see the folders that they can access at a lower level, but nothing else.

I've found out why I couldn't login earlier: my test account was disabled. (D'Oh).

This is a nice article about redirecting users to thier own ftp folders when they connect. I also recommend looking around the site for good info on IIS6, security, and all kinds of helpfull tips. Hope this helps!
