User Isolation in IIS 7

AJ Patankar — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 08:39:14 GMT

Hi guys Fairly new to IIS7 and was having a few issues setting up an FTP site. Have a web server using IIS 7 to host a web site and hoping to set up an FTP server on the same machine. Using IIS7, I've got the ftp site stable. Problem I have is we want to use our FTP for customers also. As a result, wanted to set up User Isolation within the FTP Directory. I know to create users I need the IIS 7 Manager Users applet to configure users but this option does not appear on my IIS. Its an option with Server 2008 but the machine is currently installed on a Vista host. Installing this on a server in our domain isn't really an option as ideally, we want this machine to be on an alternative subnet from our main network for security. If needs be, I have the option to upgrade to Win 7 if anyone is aware if the option is definitely there with Windows 7? One thing I noticed with a few sites is there appears to be an option in Windows Server within the "Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features On or Off" which caters for this with Win Server. Is there an option I'm missing within Vista or is this not possible without Win Server 2008? Any help, pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated Thanks

How to allow Admin access to all directories with User Isolation

masud80 — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 18:20:35 GMT

I have the server setup with user isolation enabled.

I also have a .NET application that needs to spin through the user directories and retrieves their files. So I was thinking of creating an admin account that can access all directories so that my .NET app can log in using that. I can't seem to find any resource to create such an account. Is there a way to achive this goal?

Thanks.

Re: FTP and User Isolation IIS7 Server 2008

I'm also pulling my hair out try to migrate to FTP7. I have a cute little application that generates a bat file when a user signs up for a new web/ftp account on my server. The app has been bulletproof on IIS6 for years. Basically, it uses the username and password to: 1) creat a NET USER 2) MKDIR the right directories 3) CACLS the right permissions 4) iisftpdr and iiswebdr to create virtual directories. In realtime, they have an account. I have revised the bat file with appcmd for iiswebdr and everything works great, EXCEPT FTP. I've read a lot of forum entries (including this one) and tried to figure out two things: 1) how do you use appcmd (or other script) to create the FTP provision for a new account? Is it even necessary anymore? 2) What are the correct settings for User Isolation to make accounts work? In IIS6, I have all my user files on D:\ in physical folders with usernames (i.e., d:\localuser\smithx). I have tried every combination of permissions that I can in the FTP wizard. Since the server is NOT part of a domain, I use local accounts only (no AD). Any help would be much appreciated. I am about ready to hire an IIS7 top gun if anyone knows any one in the Akron/Cleveland area... Thanks!

Re: Accessing a folder on another domain machine via FTP. Possible?

Hmm, looks like the FTP-server has been set up with user isolation... I imagine that complicates matters?

FTP User Isolation + Virtual Directory

renew84 — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 08:20:31 GMT

Hi guys,

I got the following problem I should solve:

I have an IIS 6.0 FTP Server running in user isolation mode, automatically redirecting the (local) Users to root/LocalUser/username. The root folder is located on the ftp-server.

This works fine.

Now a Domain-User needs access to a remote share. If it was a local folder i would just add the folder root/domain/username and it should work (as described here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/b63de8ef-e3c5-456d-a8ca-7af4198819d4.mspx?mfr=true)

But he needs access to the remote share. How do I accomplish this (or is it even possible)? Create a Vdir to the remote share? How do I name it that the ftp server catches the domain-account and redirects him to the share?

thank you very much for you help, yours renew
