Authentication issue - Inetserver

You mean the user can't authenticate with local user ?
Have you try login as the local ftp server user?

You can't prevent domain auth as this machine is part of the domain.
However, the auth will always try local user database, unless it is
requested to auth with domain controller.

I tried with a local user but its still not working......... I created a
local user then gave the user rights (FC) on the ftproot and then gave the
user permissions (FC) on the ftp site in IIS....... do i need to make the
user a member of any p'cular group or give ne other rights?? I really need to
get this going...... plzzzzz help. i jus created the local user...... i
haven't logged in as that user...... will that make a difference??

The IIS FTP server is a member server right ? not domain controller?
if member server, go to computer management, then create a user.

use ftp.exe to login and test. can the user login? what msgs you see in
ftp.exe ?

yes the FTP server is a member server not a DC. i tried ftp.exe from a remote
system. it gives the error as 530 User ftp ( this is the local username)
cannot log in. And if I try from the ftp server itself it gives the following
error:

"ftp.exe is not a valid win32 application"
And i have created the local user the same way u have mentioned.

In this case, make sure the local user has logon locally right.
