A New Method for LAN file sharing -- Build an FTP server using win7/Windows 7 Components

Do you want to share a large number of files/folders in the dormitory through the lan? Do you want to achieve file exchange at home through a network cable? Family Group troubles? Let's teach you a new function in win7-building an FTP server by yourself!

First, control panel-Program-Enable or disable the WINDOWS function, or search for "Enable or" in the Start Menu. In the WINDOWS function window that appears, select the FTP function and web management tool under Internet information service to enable the Service:

[Note: You must select and select all web management tools. Otherwise, you cannot continue to call the IIS manager only when the FTP function is enabled]

Click OK. Well, you have to wait a few minutes. Take it easy.

 

Wait for a moment, choose control panel-system and security-management tools, or search for "Internet Information Service (IIS) manager" in the Start Menu"

[Note: This option will only appear in the management tool after you enable the function in the previous step. Otherwise, you cannot search for the Start Menu .]

Open the ISS manager, right-click your server, and select "add FTP site ":

Then add your FTP site name and select the path you want to share:

Continue. Select your intranet IP address from the IP address drop-down list. Default port. Select "Start FTP site automatically", and select none or allow for SSL. "

Next step. Select Anonymous Access and select the user that is allowed to access. Select whether to allow reading and writing as needed.

[Note: Generally, win7 users upload files to the self-built FTP server under win7 over 30 mb. The Windows 7 server will be dropped due to heavy loads, and XP users do not have to worry about such problems, the cause may be that the priority of win7 is too high, and all the bandwidth of the server is occupied during transmission, resulting in the depletion of server resources. Therefore, try to avoid writing]

Finally, on the control panel-system and security-allow programs, select the FTP server and select "home/work" and "public ":

Success! Open your browser, enter your internal and external IP addresses, and set up your FTP!

Note: if you cannot enter the firewall, disable the Windows Firewall. This method is only applicable to lan and FTP over the Internet. Third-party software is required]
