FTP Site
I need to set-up an SFTP server. I'm thinking of using WS-FTP Server. I currently have a AMD 950 Desktop PC 256mb sdram, 80GB 7200rpm hard drive, running Windows 2000 Professional.
I'm wondering how well this system will perform as an FTP Server (if at all). How many people can connect to this system at one time? Do I need to use a server Operating System? Should I use a file-server? Ideally, what hardware should I use to set-up a great ftp server?
I also need to give each customer access to specific individualized folders. Can I set-up permissions for each account so that when one customer logs-in they are only presented with the folders they are entitled to?
I really have no idea when it comes to networking hardware. If someone can offer any suggestions or perhaps a web-site where I can find information on setting up an FTP Server it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
