FTP Shadow
1.Authentication Agency and Separated Directories
More Information
Caution: Account and password are typed capital sensitively.
2.Separated Directories
With the special technology in FTP Shadow, multi-user for one
FTP server is much better than before. After logged in, FTP
Shadow will lock the account in one specified directory and make
it as home.
More Information
For example, there are two directories named "A", "B" in one FTP
account. Administrator can just set the directory "A" as the
home of one account. When one FTP client login by this account,
the directory "A" will be shown as its home directory, both in
file list and directory name. And it cannot see the directory
"B" and other directories which are in the same level of
directory "A" or above. This function just enabled you to
separate accounts into different directory for multi-user
environment safely.
3.Permissions Configuration
With FTP Shadow, you can also configure permissions for each account. First, all accounts are not allowed to change the real FTP server password by using FTP command "Site PSWD". Second, each account can be set to READONLY mode. In this mode, account cannot create, append, re-name or delete files and directories. Last, FTP Shadow can just set "which kinds of files cannot be uploaded" for each account. Administrator can limit the ASP/ASPX/ASMX files uploaded to prevent some attacks for the server by HTTP service.
4.FTP Service Redirection
FTP Shadow can connect to FTP servers installed not only in the
local host, but also anywhere which can be access by the local host.
By using FTP Shadow, you can redirect the remote FTP servers to the
local host by using different accounts to login. If the local host
has one WAN IP, you can redirect some FTP servers in your LAN to the
local host for WAN users' access. This function makes it able for
some LAN FTP servers to be accessed by WAN users.

5.More security & stability
FTP Shadow can set IP block table in order to avoid some attack from
specified IP.
FTP Shadow has two temporary blocking lists. (1) For vicious
password trying: Clients from one IP try password more than
specified times in specified second will be blocked temporarily. (2)
For server limitation: Clients from one IP try to create new links
for specified times in specified seconds while max count reached
(max count / max count per IP) will be blocked temporarily. Of
course, you can set all the setting values, or just disable this
function.
Thanks to FTP Shadow redirection, the attacker may not find the real
IP of the FTP Service or even cannot connect to it directly. It
makes unprecedented security of your servers.
6.Easy Configuration
FTP Shadow provides not only a free management tool for
configuration, but also a totally free interface for your further
development. A Microsoft .Net framework programmer can easily build
a full functional monitor and modify tool with the interface
supplied. And also, you can just write your code to modify the
settings saved in SQL Server database.
7.Cheaper & Faster
If your FTP Server is based on Microsoft Windows Server family
system, we suggest that use FTP Service of IIS instead of any other
one. With enhancements provided by FTP Shadow, FTP Service of IIS
can meet your target of requirements.
System Requirements:
* Any computer with .Net Framework 2.0 on Windows 2K/2K3/XP
* At least one FTP Server to be connected (Recommend IIS FTP server)
* SQL Server 2000/2005/ 2005 Express Edition (Free) (Option)
