FTP banner - Inetserver

I tested this on W2k3 before SP1, I applied the fix, change the
metabase.xml, reboot and it works.

Hi Bernard

Yes on Windows 2003 you have the XML file you can change it in, but this
file is not on
Windows 2000.

You applied the hotfix and restarted the system? That *should* work.
If I rememebr correctly, there used to be a hex edit you could do to
the FTP.DLL to change this, though I've long ago lost the link. Check
the Google archives of the group and do a Google for "IIS FTP Banner"
or the like.

Note, an edited DLL isn't supported, and if it breaks your system too
bad.

Jeff

Yes, I know. where do you get the fix ? from MS. if yes you can ring them
back and ask for support as the fix is not working as it should be. I
blogged this last year and I believed I have seen users who can hide it with
the fix.

again. masking banner will protect your box and it might break some
application if it required detail from the banner info.
