Hi there, I want to be able to setup multiple ftp sites using one domain name from godaddy.
Basically, I want to be able to setup multiple ftp websites as such: ftp1.domainname.com, ftp2.domainname.com, ftp3.domainname.com, etc...
I've gone through the tuturials available, but I seem to be having problems with the binding and I don't quite get how the binding works.
Here is the current setup I have:
-OS: Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS 7.0 and FTP 7.5 installed
-I do not have DNS server installed and I'm not sure if I need it.
-I did not give my home server a Primary DNS suffix and I'm not sure if I need to.
-My host file has not been edit it.
-I have created a web and created two bindings for my website, one as domainname.com with Port 80 and the second one as www.domainname.com with port 80.
-In my godaddy account I created a A Host and have it pointing to my IP address. As of now the website works perfectly. I build a quick page using FrontPage 2007.
-In the IIS Manager I created an FTP site. The site binding is currently set with Host Name blank, Port 21 and the local IP address of my home server.
-I designated an FTP folder with Basic authentication (no annonymous). I'm able to log into the ftp site from inside my network and outside my network by just typing on any web browser on even on my computer address bar: ftp://domainname.com and it works like
a charm.
Now with this setup I'm only able to have one ftp site running and I can access it only as such: ftp://domainname.com.
I created two ftp sites and this is how I set the Site Bindings on each one:
FTP Site 1
Type: ftp
Host Name: ftp1.domainname.com
Port: 21
IP Address: (Local ip of server, ie: 192.168.0.11)
FTP Site 2
Type: ftp
Host Name: ftp2.domainname.com
Port: 21
IP Address: (Local ip of server, ie: 192.168.0.11)
In my godaddy account, I created two CNAMES: ftp1 that points to @ (@=domain name) and ftp2 which points to @. I think I did this right, but if I didn't please correct me.
Anyhow, when I do this and try to log into each ftp site, it does not work. It gives me a cannot connect to network error.
I am completly stuck and exhausted all of my resources. If someone knows what I'm doing wrong, please help me out. I will truly appreciate it. Thank you in advanced.

PS: Sorry for writing a lot, but I wanted to cover everything and provide as much detail as possible.
