How to setup an FTP Server in Windows using IIS
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard protocol for moving files from one computer to another across the Internet. The files are stored on a server computer, which runs FTP server software. Remote computers can then connect using FTP and read files from the server or copy files to the server. An FTP server is similar to an HTTP server (that is, a Web server) in that you can communicate with it using an Internet protocol. However, an FTP server does not run Web pages; it only sends and receives files from remote computers.
You can configure Internet Information Services (IIS) to function as an FTP server. This allows other computers to connect to the server and copy files to and from the server. For example, you might configure IIS to act as an FTP server if you are hosting Web sites on your computer and you want to allow remote users to connect to your computer and copy their files to the server.

This saved me for my final test in college! Thank you very much!

Great video, however, got stuck at the "Add FTP Site". Under "Bindings and SSL Settings" page, under SSL you selected 'Allow SSL', then clicked on Next with no problem. My PC with Windows 8.1Pro gives me a pop-up when I click the Next button stating, "SSL Requires a Certificate". Won't let me move forward with out either turning SSL off or entering an SSL certificate. Not sure why this is different on your video. Also, the part on accessing your IP address was quickly glanced over. The IP you used was not on the CMD screen you brought up. Any help appreciated. This is my first time setting this up. Please forgive my ignorance.

How to set up ftp server on my computer so I can access it over the internet from any other computer?

@MrLog101 14 лет назад

Thanks this was my question x)

@Britec09 11 лет назад

yes you can access anywhere in the world, as long as your server is running. So might be good idea to run this on a old computer and make it act as a server. That way you can leave it running all the time.

@nunokaka85 14 лет назад

You can also use XLight FTP Server Free, it's quite easy to use, but if you don't want to download any program, you can IIS. Thanks for the video!

@ANdR3WISCOOL 13 лет назад

I've tried using password but it doesn't work. I put in the password for the account on windows but says wrong password or username. I have added the Username to authorization. Doing this on Windows 10. However will change to Windows 95 later

@db012086 14 лет назад

Stupid question - Im only just learning about servers and recently set up a server'03 box to handle my DNS & DHCP networking [a daunting task if you just dive right into it without knowing too much about it ^^] so, would this FTP interfere or conflict with my '03 machine if it is set up on a windows 7 workstation that gets the dns & dhcp from the server??

@Kingj0n607 14 лет назад

The best!

@685islandboy 14 лет назад

i tried it & it worked with my ip address..10.1.1.4 but how does it work because aren't we using internal ip addresses?

@Pariah156 13 лет назад

Every time I do this i never see that user authorization. I get stuck looking at New Folder that's on my desktop, and I definitely did NOT set it up to do that. What am I doing wrong?

@PostHumanWarrior 13 лет назад

How do i make it available to other computers on the same network?

@dallin7788s 13 лет назад

thanks bro

@Taylor-hq9sr 10 лет назад

does the port matter cus if I have to port forward I need to know :/

@Britec09 11 лет назад

you want to make server open to the public?

@Britec09 14 лет назад

@Kingj0n607 Thanks

@laurenscott9974 7 лет назад

I did everything...step by step....but when I test it on the browser, it prompts me to enter a username and password. I do not have one, or I guess I don't know which one I'm suppose to use. Can you or someone shed some light on the subject! Thanks!

@QuickZenVibe 11 лет назад

thanks for the reply. So, I need to have a public IP adress which won't change?

@josephoo7 13 лет назад

Great video...I do have an issue, but it is not covered...nor pertinent really. I have a mac client and a 7 server. I can access my FTP fine via anonymous authentication, but when I enable basic, type my UN and PW in, it will not let me have access. Thoughts?

@fucku812 13 лет назад

Great video, but where did you add the permissions to use the site outside of your network? I have done everything and am able to see the ftp inside the network but can't reach it using my real IP. Was it a firefox browser download?

@imajavaguru 13 лет назад

This is exactly what I want to do except not have the "Authentication Required" window appear. In other words, an FTP site completely where remote users just connect and see the files, and are not prompted for any type of authentication, not even anonymous. Is this even possible?

@yoj17imsorry 11 лет назад

what if I want to share all of my drives not only F:?

@Encephalitisify 13 лет назад

During the part where you enter the username for read and write permissions, you must use a dash (-) for spaces. If you get a LONG list of "stuff" when checking the permission, it is because the user name wasn't entered correctly.

@greatsea 10 лет назад

Now could you make a video show both how to configure for remote access and demonstrating actually doing so.

@greatsea 10 лет назад

like what address does the remote user type in

@Britec09 14 лет назад

@freedombiteback yeah I think you can

@j7ndominica051 9 лет назад

I didn't know Windows had an FTP server. To completely decouple your server from Windows users you can always use free "FileZilla Server", which is available for all OS (98-xp-seven). Port forwarding isn't as easy. You will have to define the public IP inside the server as well as a port range for data connections. Give at least 500 ports. If you copy many small files, you may run out of the ports before old ones expire. Make sure the range doesn't overlap with other services (like torrent) Then you will have to forward them all and the control port to your server.

how do i log out of it?

@bo0ogy10 11 лет назад

thanks for the video! can I use a non-windows account? I don't want to share my windows username and password, and I don't want to make it public. I guess the question is: does IIS suuport local accounts?

@jamezilla0808 10 лет назад

Yo ushould warn people not to delete every other user if its the c drive

@Horizon775 12 лет назад

great tutorial thanks.. Though it has not worked for me.. once ftp created and try to acces it with firefox i get: Error 530 login or password incorrect. explorer : Keeps asking me user and password. Quick help would be apreciated. Thanks and yes i know my password of my pc

@snopiir 13 лет назад

when i typed in my password it didnt work help plzzz!!!!

@sent4dc 10 лет назад

It would be nice if you didn't skip through finding an IP address in ipconfig. For those who's interested, you can select "All Unassigned" instead of looking up you actual local IP.
