Hi. I have Windows Server 2003 enterprise. I created FTP server. And i don't know how to change the pass.
I will show you my steps:1. I go to IIS MANAGER
2. I choose the FTP server, right click on it.
3. Properties. And then Secure accounts.
4. I put in the pass that i want to use and Username.
5. I Click ok, then close the IIS MANAGER.
And when i try to access ftp server with the username and pass, it won't let me.
And the problem is: even when i will find out the pass to the FTP server, i don't need one ftp server. I need like 10. Because i am hosting game servers for people. So i need a different pass and username for each FTP server.
Waiting for reply.
Thanks..

The administrator's account has permissions over all accounts with his password and doesn't have to know every user's password.
I never used Windows FTP server or IIS manager but changing a password in Unix is done on the command line. I assume it can be done the same way.

Thanks for reply, but first i want to know is:
How can i get to the server's ftp console?
What do i type in console to change the default password of the ftp sites?Thank you..

My FTP server is running on FreeBSD 7.0. The operating system handles more than FTP the same as Windows. In my case, I connect to the FTP server from a command prompt on XP. Here's an example.
C:\>ftp 192.168.0.200
Connected to 192.168.0.200.
220 queyosepa.queyosepa.local FTP server (Version 6.00LS) ready.
User (192.168.0.200:(none)): guapo
331 Password required for guapo.
Password:
230 User guapo logged in.
ftp> remotehelp pass
214 Syntax: PASS [<sp> [password]]
ftp>I think the pass command is what you need to change the password that you initially used when you setup the server.
Keep in mind that I never used Windows FTP server. I'm just telling you what I know from Unix.
Another thing is, you keep saying sites. You only have one site. You can have as many users as you want but you have to create accounts for each of them.
From there I can run FTP commands. The pass command might be what you want.
