Steps to Create a New FTP Site Using IIS Manager 7.5

 

The new FTP service makes it easy to create new FTP sites by providing you with a wizard that walks you through all of the required steps to create a new FTP site from scratch.

 

Step 1: Use the FTP Site Wizard to Create an FTP Site

 

1)In this first step you will create a new FTP site that anonymous users can open.

 

Note: The settings listed in this walkthrough specify "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\inetpub\ftproot" as the path to your FTP site. You are not required to use this path; however, if you change the location for your site you will have to change the site-related paths that are used throughout this walkthrough.

 

2)Open IIS Manager. In the Connections pane, click the Sites node in the tree.Right-click the Sites node in the tree and click Add FTP Site, or click Add FTP Site in the Actions pane.

 

3)Create a folder at "%SystemDrive%\inetpub\ftproot"

 

4)Set the permissions to allow anonymous access:

 

5)Open a command prompt.

Type the following command:

ICACLS "%SystemDrive%\inetpub\ftproot" /Grant IUSR:R /T

Close the command prompt.

 

6)When the Add FTP Site wizard appears:

Enter "My New FTP Site" in the FTP site name box, then navigate to the %SystemDrive%\inetpub\ftproot folder that you created in the Prerequisites section. Note that if you choose to type in the path to your content folder, you can use environment variables in your paths.

When you have completed these items, click Next.

 

7)On the next page of the wizard:

Choose an IP address for your FTP site from the IP Address drop-down, or choose to accept the default selection of "All Unassigned." Because you will be using the administrator account later in this walk-through, you must ensure that you restrict access to the server and enter the local loopback IP address for your computer by typing "127.0.0.1" in the IP Address box.

 

8)Enter the TCP/IP port for the FTP site in the Port box. For this walk-through, choose to accept the default port of 21.

For this walk- through, do not use a host name, so make sure that the Virtual Host box is blank.

Make sure that the Certificates drop-down is set to "Not Selected" and that the Allow SSL option is selected.

When you have completed these items, click Next.

 

9)On the next page of the wizard:

Select Anonymous for the Authentication settings.

For the Authorization settings, choose "Anonymous users" from the Allow access to drop-down, and select Read for the Permissions option.

When you have completed these items, click Finish.

 

Step 2: Adding Additional FTP Security Settings

 

Creating a new FTP site that anonymous users can browse is useful for public download sites, but web authoring is equally important. In this step, you add additional authentication and authorization settings for the administrator account. To do so, follow these steps:

 

1)In IIS Manager, click the node for the FTP site that you created earlier, then double-click FTP Authentication to open the FTP authentication feature page.

 

2)When the FTP Authentication page displays, highlight Basic Authentication and then click Enable in the Actions pane.

 

3)In IIS Manager, click the node for the FTP site to re-display the icons for all of the FTP features.

You must add an authorization rule so that the administrator can log in. To do so, double-click the FTP Authorization Rules icon to open the FTP authorization rules feature page.

 

4)When the FTP Authorization Rules page is displayed, click Add Allow Rule in the Actions pane.

 

5)When the Add Allow Authorization Rule dialog box displays:

Select Specified users, then type "administrator" in the box.

For Permissions, select both Read and Write.

 

5)When you have completed these items, click OK.

 

Now you have setup a New FTP site with the permissions.
