I am creating an FTP server using IIS to store some files.
Here's what I did:
- I turned on the IIS feature and subfeatures in Control Panel -> Programs and Features.
- From the IIS Manager, I created a new FTP site under the Sites section.
- I entered my site name, and the folder is in my C:\ drive.
- My IP Address came from the ipv4 address that I obtained from the command ipconfig. Port is 21, and no SSL.
- I allowed anonymous and basic authentication, with read and write allowed.
My firewall was turned off during the process.
Now, here's what went wrong: I typed in the ftp address (ftp://) into my file explorer, and I got this error:
"either the server does not allow anonymous logins or email not accepted".
I logged in with my account name machineName/myName, and the password for my account, and I still cannot log in. In fact, my account is bind with a Microsoft account.
May I know how I can fix this problem?
