FTPS on Windows 2003

I was wondering how to use SSL with FTP so I could enforce usernames and passwords securely, but I found out windows doesn't support this basic feature yet. Soooo...

I'm downloading a free FTP server that allows it.

What do I do to go about setting up Secure Sockets?

Thanks a lot.

 

SSL is generally implemented in client and server software that use network connections, so in your case, it must be something that the FTP server software must support.

The feature list for the program that you linked says that it supports FTPS, or FTP using SSL, so I'd look in the software documentation to see how to configure it.

Note that if you only plan on offering FTPS from the FTP server, the FTP clients that attach to it will need to support FTPS as well.
