Install FTP Service for IIS 7 in Window Server 2008

Hi,

I was about to setup FTP Service in my production server which is Window Server 2008 standard edition (x64). I was not able to find FTP publishing service in fresh installation. I did the following steps to install;

Server Manager -> Roles -> Under Roles Services : you can find FTP Publishing Service -> Select and click Add Roles Service to install the feature.

When i did the above steps, after installation to my surprise i found
FTP 6 got installed!

FTP Services 7:

Then from forums found Microsoft has written New FTP services (FTP Publishing Service 7) for Windows Server 2008 which could be downloaded from the following links:

Download FTP Publishing Service for Windows Server 2008 (x64)

Download FTP Publishing Service for Windows Server 2008 (x86)

Hope it helps...

Regards
Fauzi

When you right click on the "server" in IIS. I was not able to see "Add FTP Site" until i install this. More over after installation only i was able to see FTP section in Features view along Asp.net, IIS & Management.
