    FTP site via URL

    I can get to my ftp site using ftp://ip but how do you use a URL...either www. or ftp.?  Do I actually have to set up a web site and enable FTP publishing or can I just do it from an FTP site?  I only have an FTP site set up now.  Thanks for your help!

    You need to register a domain name and setup your DNS.  Do you have a domain name yet?

     Yes, I have a domain set up already.  I have the server in DNS, too.  Do I set up an alias for the web site in DNS?  I tried that, but I'm not sure I'm doing it right.

    Create a CNAME record for either www or ftp and point it at "@" (or your ip address).

    You could also do a redirect, but its not always as effective.

     Thanks for your input.  I ended up just creating a website with FTP publishing.

    Is this IIS 7 if you added the FTP binding to the site.
