Thanks & regards. Sunday, January 8, 2017 5:23 PM. Reply Quote. In both cases, you can use an optional FTP Server component of the IIS. It can be installed standalone or along with a Web Server.1. Installing FTP Server. On Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2012; On Windows Server 2008 R2; On Windows Desktop (Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista) Opening IIS Manager. If Windows Firewall is running, add 22/TCP port to allow SSH connection like follows. 10 For connecting from Windows Server to Linux Server, it's possible to do on Powershell or Command Prompt like follows.
Select the server and click Next again.
Now, expand the web server (IIS) role. Select the FTP server and click Next. Please note you have to install IIS role if you do not see FTP Server role option.
We don’t need to add any features, so click Next again. Click Finish on the Confirmation window.
After installing FTP server role, open the Internet Information Services (IIS) console. Connect to the local server. Expand the local server.
Right-click the sites and click Add FTP Site.
Now type the name for the FTP site. Configure the folder where the files will be stored. Create some files in the folder for test purpose. I will create a file and a folder. These files will be accessed via FTP client by users. Now click Next.
Configure the IP address of this server. The IP address must match the address configured in the network adapter of this server. This IP address will be used by client to access the FTP server. Check the start FTP site automatically. Choose No SSL and click Next.
Choose Basic for authentication. Basic authentication doesn’t use encryption mechanism so username/password are sent in clear text. By default, basic authentication matches username/password from Active Directory database or you can create user accounts in IIS. You can create users in IIS after installing Management Server under Management Tools which is in Web Server (IIS) role. Under authorization, select all users to allow FTP access to all users of the domain. Check both read and write under permissions.
Now browse FTP server from the client machine. Type the IP address on the browser as ftp://192.168.1.1/. It will show the following page.
Now, press ALT key in you keyboard which will show the menu bar. Then click View and click Open FTP site in File Explorer.
Now the FTP server will ask for username and password. Enter the username and password which was created in AD Users and Computers. Then click Log On. Here, I had already created username called JCorner in active directory.
After clicking the Log On button you can see the files in the FTP server.
You can see the file and folder in the FTP server. You can also use FTP client like, FileZillato access the FTP server from client machine. So, this is how you install and configure FTP server.

Microsoft IIS server does not support SFTP (or SSH) at all, on any version of IIS or Windows.
Enable Sftp Windows Server 2012
IIS supports secure FTP (FTPS or FTP over TLS/SSL) though. It's a different (incompatible) protocol than SFTP, but most 'FTP' clients support both SFTP and FTPS.
When setting up an FTPS server, make sure you disable plain (unencrypted) FTP!
See (my) guide on Installing Secure FTP Server on Windows using IIS.
Microsoft recently released OpenSSH for Windows (Releases and Downloads). It's now available as optional feature on Windows 10 version 1803 and newer. It can also be manually installed on older versions of Windows.
I have prepared a guide for setting up SSH/SFTP server on Windows using this Microsoft build of OpenSSH.
No. Microsoft offers an FTP over SSL (FTPS) solution but does not currently provide a solution for securing FTP traffic using FTP over SSH (SFTP)
