Re: 100s of FTP Accounts
Dont bog down Windows with all these users. If you use IIS ftp, plan carefully by assigning your users to groups. The IHTK @ www.intrafoundation.com is a set of custom tags that will let you programatically set up IIS ftp accounts, directories, and so on. You might want to think about using an ftp server other than IIS, there are many others out there that are scriptable and have their own databases of users, and not relying on the user having a windows account. jon - Original Message - From: Michael Lugassy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 11:21 AM Subject: 100s of FTP Accounts We're about to offer all of our users and client complete ftp access to 10mb of storage.
