Yes, if you go into IIS you'll see an FTP Site section, or if you don't, you should be able to right-click on the top level of that IIS tree and choose "New -> FTP Site"

IP address yes, but the folder stuff will be relative to whatever you set your FTP root to be, which is configurable in your IIS FTP settings. Your FTP root is not necessarily the same things as your webroot, but it can be.

Do I use the IP address in the access (i.e. ftp.123.45.67.8/

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.

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?
