How do i set restrictions to website directories size limits when setting up FTP access in IIS6
We have a hosted dedicated server and we host many of our clients website son there.
We have the need to offer some clients FTP access to upload files to their site which is easy enough to do in IIS using the FTP option, however we want to restrict some clients to a total folder size for their website for example 50mb. How can we configure these setting using IIS6/FTP etc...if it can even be done? (basically if they upload files and the files in the website folder in total exceed 50mb or what ever we set they cant upload anymore)
Cheers

If you implement disk quotas and set the limit to 50mb per user and require authentication to access you will enforce the limits you require

Many thanks Kieran, the settings in quota seem simple enough to set-up, however i forgot to mention this server is not in a domain or has active directory (i think) so i am correct to say i can just set up a user in local users and groups and then use these users in FTP/Disk Qutoa mgmt?
