iks 0 Posted July 9, 2002 Hi there! I have created a new username for accessing my FTP server which is running under IIS. Everything works fine but I don't want this user to be shown in Welcome screen... Under Local Security Plicy I tried to add this username to Deny Logon Locally line, but then I am not able to logon to my FTP from anywhere... So what shuld I do? Thanks, Share this post Link to post
CUViper 0 Posted July 9, 2002 Hmm, I would have thought that would work... Here's another way: Download TweakUI from here. In the logon section you can select and deselect users to show on the welcome screen. Share this post Link to post
clutch 1 Posted July 9, 2002 The FTP function will behave like that as you have to assign the "logon locally" right to any user or group that needs to access IIS via FTP *or* WWW (hence the reason MS urges that the servers by physically secured). This security is by design. Share this post Link to post
iks 0 Posted July 11, 2002 Thanks, CUViper - it works... nice hint... Clutch - yeah I believe it's because of security reasons... but actually I am not logging in locally when I try to logon to my FTP server from some other computer in or our of my LAN... Thanks, Share this post Link to post

Thanks, No, I know what you mean, it's just as I wrote however; the security policy considers logging on through FTP as logging on locally, just the same as using WWW. Accessing a machine via network would be like connecting to a printer, using shares, etc. Share this post Link to post
