changing ftp user home directory

[pedropadron]

hello!

does anybody know how can I change the ftp user home directory so it can login directly into httpdocs?

In UNIX all I have to do is change the home directory in passwd, but in windows I can't find where can I change this.

I've checked the "Users and Groups" section using MMC, and I changed the home directory of the user I want and restarted all the related services, but it didn't work...

When I check the domain properties in IIS, I see that the home directory is already set to httpdocs, but I need to setup the ftp user to login directly in that folder.

Anyone?

Thanks!

Good questions, i'm not exactly sure myself, all my ftp accounts start in the root, not httpdocs.

Though I just setup my ftp client to start in httpdocs manually via the ftp client settings, so that works!

You could play around with step 4 of this article http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=201771 but I would leave it as is and rather ask whoever is connecting to your FTP site to specify the default folder of httpdocs.
