Hide FTP Folders

[spt]

I'm using the default ftp site in 2000. I made a bunch of
virtual sites folders for people to access under the ftp
root. The problem is that even though I'm using ntfs
permissions to lock them down everyone can see all the
folders. Is there an easy way to correct this?

Thanks in advance!

try placing a $ at the start of the filename. for instance $myfolder

The user has to know the EXACT folder name though, otherwise there is no way of doing it

I believe you'd need a third party FTP server to do this. The whole FTP in
IIS is really weak in the features area for a multi-user setup, and I pray
that it's been worked on for IIS6. I'm afraid to find out though, because I
do not want to be disappointed.

shouldn't the $ be at the end as in MyFolder$ to make it hidden?
