It doesn't seem to be working...?
If you are using virtual directories make sure you remove the tick box for virtual directories in "FTP Directory Browsing". This will now remove the directory from view however, with a complete path you have access to the file without revealing other items in folder. i.e ftp.domain.com\TechSales\file.txt
Virtual directories that i want displayed are no longer available?
The use of place holders will help. Virtual directories have higher priority over physcial paths, as we have told iis not to display VD's a place holder will assist you with redirecting the user neatly.
To display an alias called CustomerDownloads (VD path F:\virtualDirectory\CustomerDownloads) previous displayed in the public folder; create an empty folder as a place holder visible to the anonymous user: ftproot\LocalUser\Public\CustomerDownload
