| | Does anyone know a workaround to get WS_FTP Server to install on Windows Server 2008? I find it really annoying that there is absolutely nothing on IPSwitch's site regarding Windows Server 2008. I suspect it's related to the same issues as Vista, but the slow movement in becoming compatible suggests that I should probably move to product that takes proactive steps to remain compatible. It's a shame really, because I think WS_FTP Server is generally a good product, but Vista has been available for over a year, and Windows Server 2008 has also been available for awhile (and ALLOT longer in beta), and yet nothing is available for compatibility. I may have even had a different opinion if they would at least aprise their customer base of the situation, which, they obviously are not, or at least make it very difficult to find. I apologize for the negative post, but sometimes, negative feedback is necessary. Thanks |

| | I strongly agree! I need to setup WS_FTP Server 6.1 with SSH on a new hardware with Windows 2008. Unfortunately, there is no information available if or when WS_FTP Server will be supported on Windows 2008 - or at least it is hidden so I am unable to find the info. I am very disappointed. Windows 2008 Server was around for a long time as a beta. They had time enough to get ready for RTM. But one cannot even find a news or a note about compatiblity with Windows 2008. I hope this will change very soon or I will be forced to change to another product (even it's the own FTP service of Windows 2008). |

| Is this still an issue?
I have ws_ftp server installed on a old XP-machine used as a "server", now we're upgrading the whole domain with new servers, running 2008x64, and at the same time the xp-machine decided to stop co-operating. I therefore have to move the ftp_server to one of the 2008s which i haven't even begun doing since i'm also stuck with extracting the passwords from the old installation.
I'm not a happy kitten at the moment. |
