And of course access permissions and NTFS permissions combine the same way they do for web sites. Like web sites, IP address restrictions can be used to allow or deny access to your site by clients that have a specific IP address, an IP address in a range of addresses, or a specific DNS name. These restrictions are configured on the Directory Security tab just as they are for web sites, and this was covered in the previous article so we won't discuss them further here.
FTP sites also have fewer authentication options than web sites, as can be seen by selecting the Security Accounts tab:. By default Allow anonymous connections is selected, and this is fine for public FTP sites on the Internet but for private FTP sites on a corporate intranet you may want to clear this checkbox to prevent anonymous access to your site. Clearing this box has the result that your FTP site uses Basic Authentication instead, and users who try to access the site are presented with an authentication dialog box:.
Note that Basic Authentication passes user credentials over the network in clear text so this means FTP sites are inherently insecure they don't support Windows integrated authentication. So if you're going to deploy a private FTP site on your internal network make sure you close ports 20 and 21 on your firewall to block incoming FTP traffic from external users on the Internet.
From the command-line you can type net stop msftpsvc followed by net start msftpsvc or use iisreset to restart all IIS services. Remember that restarting an FTP site is a last resort as any users currently connected to the site will be disconnected.
When an FTP site uses this feature, each user accessing the site has an FTP home directory that is a subdirectory under the root directory for the FTP site, and from the perspective of the user their FTP home directory appears to be the top-level folder of the site. This means users are prevented from viewing the files in other users' FTP home directories, which has the advantage of providing security for each user's files.
I suggest you consider upgrading to new OSes. Please remember to mark the replies as answers if they help and unmark them if they provide no help.

I recently secured a domain name and wanted to set up an e-mail server for a small network, but my options were somewhat limited. I had basically narrowed it down to three choices.
I could install Exchange on an existing Windows server but that's not a very smart idea on a network with less than 30 users. I could use Red Hat Linux but that would require an additional server. Of course, you may say that such a thing would conflict with its Exchange product. But, why not offer a very basic POP3 e-mail server without all the extra features such as contacts, calendar sharing, chat services, etc.
This would be a great asset for small organizations, and would keep many of them from turning to Linux and other third-party solutions. As Relay Restrictions we selected Only the list below because we do not want to be used by spammers to send emails.
But we never specified any computers. That is valid, because we wants our clients to always use the username and password to authenticate, no matter where they are. If you want users to only be allowed to relay if they are on a private network, then you can uncheck Windows Authentication as allowed authentication method, and specify the IP range for your network in the Relay Restrictions window.
Is that all? Do we have a working email server now? Well, the answer is yes. But we still haven't configured the email clients. Are we finished now? Well, let us try to send an email. Didn't work, did it?
I'm sure you got an error message similar to this one:. The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'webmaster ilopia. Subject 'Test', Account: 'ilopia. The reason why we got this is written in the error message. This means that we didn't get authenticated to the SMTP server. So, let us take a look at the email client's settings again. And hopefully you will receive an email within some minutes if you sent it to your own email account.
This will, as stated before, send the user name and password from the client encrypted, instead of clear text. If you need more help, or are curious about things, take a look at the help files in Windows Server They are excellent and you will find out that there are more features that I have not talked about.
I have configured the email server and I can send emails without problems. But all emails the server receives ends up in the Drop folder and are not moved to the proper mailbox. What is wrong? This can happen if you have moved the mail root recently and forgot to cycle the server.
