ftp folder user is able to cd into and upload, but not list 1

[yesti]

Hello,
We have been trying to setup a folder as described in the subject. The user should be able to cd into the folder, but not list the contents nor download files, but be able to upload files. We are using iis 5.0 on win2k server. Here are the ntfs permissions we have on the folder:

IUSR_Machinename

This folder Only

Traverse Folder
Create Files/Write Data
Create folders/Append Data
Write Attributes
Write Extended Attributes
Read Permissions (without this you cant cd into the folder)

Files Only

Create Files/Write Data
Create folders/Append Data
Write Attributes
Write Extended Attributes

With these permissions, you can login via command prompt, cd into the folder, not be able to list but you also cannot upload to it. Any ideas? Thanks!

yesti, I did what you did, and it worked just fine for me. I'm assuming you are logging in anonymously, and the IUSR_MACHINENAME is the user setup for anonymous access.

All I can say is check over your config... It should work!

After much turmoil I figured out the home directory did not have 'write' access enabled! Reason is the sys admin is used to the unix 'deny all at root level and assign permissions at the folder/file level'. So the root folder only had 'Read' and 'Log' enabled. Obviously MS FTP does not work this way. I had to set ntfs permissions on the root folder to not allow IUSR to upload/download from that folder in addition to the enabling 'write' for the ftp site. Thanks for verifying my settings!
