creating IIS ftp user using windows programming in any windows language

I wonder If I can create an IIS FTP user programatically using windows programming either using winAPI or window services....

I have read the API but I couldn't find any that satisfy my need.

Anybody has a solution for my problem?

thanks before

Yeah you can. Look it up on the internet.

CheckSal - that wasn't really helpful was it ?

Maybe you're getting tired but a post like that doesn't benefit anyone.

Personally I don't know anything about IIS - but I'm sure you can at least point him in the right direction.

A post effectively saying "I know how to do this, but go look it up yourself" isn't helpful.

Now I do tend to put negative posts here : normally when I start getting fed up with someone's inability to read what I've posted, or when someone asks questions pertaining to homework or a job quiz.

However, this seems like a genuine question to me.

And sorry, Zacharya, I don't know anything about IIS (yet) so I can't really help you.

hi zacharya
i don't have the solution for you but i think i have some usefull information

IIS FTP user is, in fact, windows user (local or domain user)
i think it is enough if you create an user and add it to a group (local or domain) wich have ftp access

for working with active directory objects take a look at:

let me know if this helps you

Thank you Valentin and the others
I'll read it first.

I know that it can be done (creating IIS user programatically)
since cpanel (php based web hosting administration tool) can create an ftp user for apache web server.....I thnink that IIS has to have the same capability.

I apologize to anyone and everyone who I offended with my post. It was not my intention. And yes I was a bit frustrated and I should not have vented it here. Thanks for understanding.
