What is the best way to secure an FTP server in IIS 5 and IIS in general ???
Right, now have it set up with 2 accounts... an ftp incoming account and an
ftp outgoing account with correct virtual directories and associated NTFS
permissions. Now, is there a way to deny the creation of directories (i.e.
stop hackers from creating the COM and LPT special directories) ???? Is
there a way to stop reading files and just view the directory contents... in
NTFS, just using list folder contents, returns a read error... Also, is
there a way to have the server place the files in a secure temporary
location (for the incoming folder) until the posts can by checked
automatically or manually by virus/trojan scanners and not immediately
post/run in the folder ???
These questions are in response to having the FTP server hacked and had to
reset up the entire server due to a trojan... So what is the best way to
secure IIS ??? Or should everyone just uninstall it and buy software that
supports SSL on the FTP server ????
