-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Internet Information Server versions 4.0, 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

The FTP Service's DefaultLogonDomain is not available in the Microsoft
Management Console (MMC).

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, manually add DefaultLogonDomain to the FTP Service
in the MMC. To do this, you can use either of the following:

- The Metaedit.exe utility, included with the IIS 4.0 Resource Kit.

  -or-

- The Adsutil.vbs utility that is included with IIS 4.0.

  NOTE: By default, Adsutil.vbs is located in the
  <%SystemRoot%>\System32\Inetsrv\Adminsamples folder. Also, you must
  first install the Windows Script Host before using Adsutil.vbs. For more
  information on using Adsutil.vbs, see below.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Specific Instructions for Using Adsutil.vbs
-------------------------------------------

Run Adsutil.vbs from a command prompt, using the appropriate syntax below
(depending on whether you want to set DefaultLogonDomain for all FTP sites, just
the default FTP site, or other sites):

- To set DefaultLogonDomain for all FTP sites, run the following command:

  " adsutil set msftpsvc/DefaultLogonDomain "DomainName" " (without the
  quotation marks)

- To set DefaultLogonDomain for only the default FTP site, run the following
  command:

  " adsutil set msftpsvc/1/DefaultLogonDomain "DomainName" " (without the
  quotation marks)

  NOTE: If the command listed above, which uses the Adsutil utility, fails, you
  can use the following command instead, which uses the Mdutil utility from the
  Windows NT Option Pack compact disc:

  " mdutil.exe set /msftpsvc/1/DefaultLogonDomain "DomainName" " (without the
  quotation marks)

- To set DefaultLogonDomain for any other site, use the same syntax as the
  default FTP site above, but change the "1" parameter to the appropriate
  service number.
