This is the background of my question (OS is Windows Web Server 2008 R2).
I want to prevent ftp users from deleting files and sub folders of root ftp directory. I removed delete permission for IUSR account for the root folder but ftp users can still delete the sub folders and files. Is there a different windows account that ftp runs under other than IUSR?
I authenticate ftp users via a custom authentication provider as described here, http://www.iis.net/learn/develop/developing-for-ftp/how-to-use-managed-code-c-to-create-a-simple-ftp-authentication-provider and user home directory is chosen as described here, http://www.iis.net/learn/develop/developing-for-ftp/how-to-use-managed-code-c-to-create-a-simple-ftp-home-directory-provider
I am new to the IIS and FTP server configurations. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
