Have you tried to restart the FTP service?

Yes, it turns out I just had to wait until the usernames propagated.

You may find that a stand alone FTP program is easier to manage and has better security (you don't have to allow every user account FTP access). I prefer Filezilla Server over IIS.<br />

Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a W2K server running FTP. &nbsp;We are having a problem where a username we deleted can still access the ftp server and read/write to the directory. <br />
<br />
The username is client, we deleted the client username - didn't work, we also discovered that if we leave the client password blank when logging into the ftp site it still allows it to login. &nbsp;Allow Annoynomous connection is turned off. &nbsp;We tried recreating the username and disabling it, didn't work, we also tried a different password from the original, still didn't work. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
If we try to use a random username to login to our FTP site, it doesn't work, so there definately seems to be something with the client username.<br />
<br />
Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br />

W2K Server FTP Issue

Hello,

I have a W2K server running FTP.  We are having a problem where a username we deleted can still access the ftp server and read/write to the directory.

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
