Anonymous ftp has full access by default

  1. Just signed up with you guys and was surprised to find that anonymous ftp was wide open! This should be locked down on new accounts, luckily I bothered to look at the User section of the control panel.
     
  2. Of course after changing that it locks out anybody from accessing the website too. Shouldn't ftp users and web users be different?

    Hello,

    I apologize for the confusion but let me clarify. The anonymous user from the Permission Manager refers to the IUSR and ASPNET user accounts, not anonymous FTP.
