In this section, you configure the external IPv4 address for the specific FTP site that you created earlier. Once you have entered the external IPv4 address for your firewall server, click Apply in the Actions pane to save your configuration settings. Windows Server contains a built-in firewall service to help secure your server from network threats. If you choose to use the built-in Windows Firewall, you will need to configure your settings so that FTP traffic can pass through the firewall.
Each of these configurations are described below. You will need to make sure that you follow the steps in this section walkthrough while logged in as an administrator.
This can be accomplished by one of the following methods:. One of the above steps is required because the User Account Control UAC security component in the Windows Vista and Windows Server operating systems prevents administrator access to your firewall settings. For more information about UAC, please see the following documentation:.
While Windows Firewall can be configured using the Windows Firewall applet in the Windows Control Panel, that utility does not have the required features to enable all of the features for FTP.
The Windows Firewall with Advanced Security utility that is located under Administrative Tools in the Windows Control Panel has all of the required features to enable the FTP features, but in the interests of simplicity this walkthrough will describe how to use the command-line Netsh.
To enable stateful FTP filtering that will dynamically open ports for data connections, type the following syntax then hit enter:. The stateful FTP packet inspection in Windows Firewall will most likely prevent SSL from working because Windows Firewall filter for stateful FTP inspection will not be able to parse the encrypted traffic that would establish the data connection.
The FTP service is hosted in a generic service process host Svchost. To configure the firewall to allow the FTP service to listen on all ports that it opens, type the following syntax then hit enter:. It is often challenging to create firewall rules for FTP server to work correctly, and the root cause for this challenge lies in the FTP protocol architecture. Viewed 3k times.

Maybe it is the firewall that block To correct this issue and allow FTP state tracking on Windows Firewall, run this command from a command prompt : netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFtp enable or put inetsrv.
Improve this answer. Watch the edit, i've inserted a script that should work also in Windows Server Note in the status bar at the bottom of the IE window that you are connected as an anonymous user. Note that anonymous users using IE are displayed as [email protected] under Connected Users. The script we used here is Iisftp. A full syntax for this script can be found here. Note : At this point you could add structure to your FTP site by creating virtual directories, and this is done in the same way as was described in the previous article for working with web sites.
NTFS permissions are always your first line of defense but we can't cover them in detail here. Note that access permissions for FTP sites are much simpler Read and Write only than they are for web sites, and by default only Read permission is enabled, which allows users to download files from your FTP site. If you allow Write access, users will be able to upload files to the site as well. And of course access permissions and NTFS permissions combine the same way they do for web sites.
Like web sites, IP address restrictions can be used to allow or deny access to your site by clients that have a specific IP address, an IP address in a range of addresses, or a specific DNS name. These restrictions are configured on the Directory Security tab just as they are for web sites, and this was covered in the previous article so we won't discuss them further here. FTP sites also have fewer authentication options than web sites, as can be seen by selecting the Security Accounts tab:.
