RE: plugging old IIS FTP holes

Hi,

My apologies. It appears it isnt possible to change the version banner of the IIS5 FTP service using the ISM. I should have checked this before I posted, but I naively assumed this was one of the options you can change - the reality is only the welcome and exit messages are configurable.

Apparently it is possible however using a hex editor and editing a couple of system files - a google search should return relevant information.

Incidentally, IIS6 on Windows Server 2003 reports "Microsoft FTP Service", but no version number. There is an option to configure the banner, but this is appended to the above, as opposed to replacing it (even this isnt possible on IIS5). I guess MS don't want us stripping their corporate name from our public services.

Regards
Lee
