    Hi Shaikh!

    you can create an local FTP. for this you need to have an high end Server that holds the data of your requirement.

    Process:

    1) install IIS, Select the FTP Component there
    2) FTP will be installed in the c:\Inetpub\FTP.

    for the Authentication type : there are two types

    1) you can create users in the local and provide authentication to the folder FTP
    2) you can install ADS and provide authentication to that folder FTP.

    if you want multiple FTP folders to be created, go to IIS and create a Virtual Directory.

    Cheers,
    Venkatakrishnan .S.P.

      Also, please reference the documents on securing the computer you just set up - FTP servers are one of the most common targets out there, you should make sure that you have security enough to defend the data you are putting out there.

          If you didn't guess, I am answering you with another Google search ;). Being able to find that information on your own is a life and job skill.
