As I pointed out in my recent blog post that was titled "FTP 7.5 and WebDAV 7.5 have been released", one of the great new features of the FTP 7.5 service is extensibility. In that blog post I mentioned that I wrote the following walkthroughs to help developers get started writing providers for the FTP 7.5 service, and these walkthroughs are all available on Microsoft's learn.iis.net Web site:

• For Managed Code Developers:
  • How to Use Managed Code to Create a Simple FTP Authentication Provider
  • How to Use Managed Code to Create a Simple FTP Home Directory Provider
  • How to Use Managed Code to Create a Simple FTP Logging Provider
• For Native Code Developers:
  • How to Use Native Code to Create a Simple FTP Authentication Provider
  • How to Use Native Code to Create a Simple FTP Home Directory Provider
  • How to Use Native Code to Create a Simple FTP Logging Provider

We have also recently published the FTP Service Extensibility Reference on Microsoft's MSDN Web site, and here is a list of all the reference topics that we have written for FTP 7.5 service extensibility:

• FTP Managed-Code Extensibility API Reference
  • FTP Managed-Code Extensibility Interfaces
    • IFtpAuthenticationProvider Interface
      • IFtpAuthenticationProvider.AuthenticateUser Method
      • IFtpAuthenticationProvider.Initialize Method
    • IFtpHomeDirectoryProvider Interface
      • IFtpHomeDirectoryProvider.GetUserHomeDirectoryData Method
      • IFtpHomeDirectoryProvider.Initialize Method
    • IFtpLogProvider Interface
      • IFtpLogProvider.Log Method
      • IFtpLogProvider.Initialize Method
    • IFtpRoleProvider Interface
      • IFtpRoleProvider.IsUserInRole Method
      • IFtpRoleProvider.Initialize Method
  • FTP Managed-Code Extensibility Structures
    • FtpLogEntry Class
• FTP Native-Code Extensibility API Reference
  • FTP Native-Code Extensibility Interfaces
    • IFtpAuthenticationProvider Interface
      • IFtpAuthenticationProvider::AuthenticateUser Method
    • IFtpHomeDirectoryProvider Interface
      • IFtpHomeDirectoryProvider::GetUserHomeDirectoryData Method
    • IFtpLogProvider Interface
      • IFtpLogProvider::Log Method
    • IFtpProviderConstruct Interface

    • IFtpRoleProvider Interface
      • IFtpRoleProvider::IsUserInRole Method
  • FTP Native-Code Extensibility Structures

I hope this helps!
