In that case you can easily just use your existing Windows account to log in via FTP. Probably simpler than installing something else.

I'll be the only one to FTP up.  However, I'll check out the Filezilla
server.

Thanks.

Subject: Re: OT: FTP to an IIS

If you want to use the stuff that's built into Windows, you just need to
have FTP running (which I believe on Windows is called "FTP Publishing
Service" in your services list) and open up port 21 on your firewall.

That's the easy part. The hard part (well, not hard, but kind of a pain on Windows) is configuring the user accounts, especially if you want certain users to be dumped into certain directories when they log in. Rather than
use the Windows stuff I'd recommend installing Filezilla Server:
http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

It's free, works great, and makes dealing with the user accounts for FTP a lot easier (and in my estimation safer) than having to configure Windows
user accounts for this purpose.

If I am at a remote computer, is it possible to configure my IIS at
home to accept an FTP upload?  Can someone give me tips on how to
accomplish this set up / configuration?
