Microsoft Windows Server

Changing FTP password

[giggle]

Hi

I have lost the password to a number of FTP accounts on our dedicated server.

I've looked everywhere for the facility to change the password but can't find it anywhere.

I've already deleted 2 web sites and re-created them but it's really time consuming.

Does anyone know of a way to change the FTP password on a dedicated server that uses Microsoft Windows Server?

Cheers

Mick

What do you use as FTP? Widnow's default FTP? If yes, do yourself a favor and purchase a commercial FTP server. I just purchased a good one for some measely $34.95. Much more powerful and a lot more secure then default MS stuff. Then just Remote Desktop into the server, install new software, disable MS FTP service.

Just like that (for those of you who know Frankie Howard).
