  How to publish with FTP7.5 and hide other folders Reply Contact I set up FTP publishing on my default web site using the newer FTP 7.5 on IIS7 on Win2008 Server.  I secured it with Require SSL.  I can lock down who can read and write to which subfolders(virtual webs).... however, I would like to hide the folders that one does not have access to like I saw in one of the videos.  How do I do that? Thanks in advance, ,,,Bydia

  Re: How to publish with FTP7.5 and hide other folders Reply Contact I have seen that article.  While it is good for an ftp site with folders using users' names... but it is not good for an IIS site where folders are web application names.  Unless I created accounts that used the same names as the web application... but like how it is that one user can access all the web apps. that he owns. ,,,Bydia

  Re: How to publish with FTP7.5 and hide other folders Reply Contact The IIS configuration was not shown in this video, but I guess this server has several web sites hosted, and each web site also has a correspondent FTP site created. (Simply use "Add FTP Publishing" for this web site.) The FTP Publishing wizard will allow you to secure this site so that only specific users can access it. That's my finding after viewing this video. Lex Li Support Engineer at Microsoft --------------------------- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

  Re: How to publish with FTP7.5 and hide other folders Reply Contact Right, IIS config was not shown... I wish it were.  However, it was stated in the video that there were other folders at the first view, but were hidden due to insufficient credentials.... and that is what I want to learn how to do.  If it were just locked down by setting up several sites than I do not think he would have said that there were other folders at that level that were hidden. Setting up a site, would by default only show what is below it without hiding anything. ,,,Bydia
