In this little tutorial, i will show you how to setup a ftp server in about 1 minute.

I assume that you have read the user setup manual parts.

1) First we need to open user account windows and create new account, we will call it "Anonymous", no login/pass defined to let everybody connect without restriction.
We give new user account access to our ftp root located in c:\ftproot which is empty for the moment, and as we think about sharing a cdrom drive, we share "d:\" to later define a shortcut to this drive,



2) We define what the user will be able to see (relative path ? Hidden files ? ...)


3) Now we want user to be able to go on our cdrom drive "d:\" so we just create a window shortcut '.lnk) in "c:\ftproot\", and we check "Links/Dir to add to directories" , "Treat as virtual directories" & "Resolve windows shortcuts",




4) Start your favorite FTP Client and login on your server with any login/pass, you should see the following :


(note "d" for directory)

or if you check "treat as links" & unchecked "Relative Path" :


(note "l" for link)


5) Clicking on "CD-ROM" will bring you to :



or if you check "treat as links" & unchecked "Relative Path" :




That's all for this first tutorial, I hope i have resolved some problems.
