Iis – Multiple directories on one FTP site

ftpiiswindows-server-2008windows-server-2008-r2

I have various directories spread accross my system. I would like to offer these directores on one FTP site, in a top level directory.

So if I have for example

c:\test\docs
c:\xxx\test\1
c:\books\pdfs

I can offer just the docs, 1, and pdfs directories without needing to share the top level directories.

Then someone connecting via FTP would see the docs, 1 and pdfs directories available for browsing.

Is this possible to set up with IIS FTP on server 2008 R2?

Best Answer

Yes, setup one FTP site and link each of these directories as Virtual Directories from within the IIS FTP manager. For security make sure the permissions separate these out from accessibility by using the R/W allow and deny rights.
