Restricting FTP passive ports

| 2 Comments

After a full day of messages going backwards and forwards between myself and our firewall admins, here’s a gem of a post with a script to restrict the port range used by passive FTP on Windows 2003 server (as well as telling Windows Firewall to leave those ports open). Who would have thought securing FTP would be so involved…

  1. Yep this is great. Found this a while back too. But the question is, how do we do this on Windows 2008 server with the new fandangled WFAS. When I know, I’ll drop you a line or if you find out, please post :-)

  2. Please do. No windows 2008 servers in our organisation yet, but I am sure it’ll happen… I did a quick Google search and came across this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd421710.aspx. Maybe this will help?
