Hi Alan,

One way of doing this is by assigning NTFS permissions. IIS will always
honor NTFS permissions.

Note: folder has e.g. Authenticated Users assigned with Read permission it
will still give user enough permission to read the folder. In short you will
have to remove all other permissions except e.g. Administrators for the FTP
and then assign permissions to the folder where user is supposed to have
access to...
