Hi all,
I have a question regarding the IIS 6.0 on the FTP
feature. Can I create different access level/rights for
the users eg: admin group, manager group.?

is the FTP secure enough? i know i can do user isolation
and force user to enter user name and password, but are
the username and password encrypted? what can i do to
secure it?

any PC running on windows can access the FTP site right?
by just using the IE?
Thanks!

Hello,

You use NTFS to restrict access to files and folders, was that was you were
asking for?

The FTP Server is not of type "Secure FTP", and the communication is not
encrypted. You cannot change this behavior, unless you have the
communication in a tunnel, such as VPN.

IE can act as a FTP client, so yes, you can use IE to communicate with the
FTP server.
