Multiple ftp sites on one server

I'm administrating an ftp server, Windows 2k3 Web Edition, and IIS6.

We have a web site to serve user files, it's isolated by user. We have a 2nd site that serves a different port, so development can upload/download the web site. Already because of the 2nd port it's a little spongy, because we have to use passive ftp to get the connection made. We need a 3rd site to serve IIS log files for an analysis package. The issue here is the 3 ftp sites serve different base directories, so mere user isolation isn't adequate.

My basic question is what is the best practice here?

Or, could I point shortcuts or virtual directories to the 2nd and 3rd sites, and just have special user ids for accessing them? How would I implement this?

Thanks,

Create Virtual directories for each site the same as the username for each site within the FTP main site. Then when that user logs in they will be put in that dir for their root dir.

Okay, that's working.


How would I set it up if I wanted three different URLs, like publicftp.company.com, privatedev.company.com, and webstats.company.com? And, how would I make the privatedev site only served internally?

Thanks,

For one create all the DNS entries then for each site add a host header for the name you want that site to respond too. For the internal one just change the ip address it responds too.
