I was able to setup an FTP site that I was able to access via ftp://127.0.0.1/ or my local(static) ip. To do this I followed these instructions (with the exception that I did not bind to 127.0.0.1 as suggested) http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/301/creating-a-new-ftp-site-in-iis-7/ I have created a firewall exception for port 20 and 21, and setup port-forwarding on my wireless router. But I can only access the site via local-host, and I need to have a friend have read access to it.

So how do I enable remote access to it?

My setup: IIS 7.5 Windows 7 Professional Wireless Network Norton Internet Security 2012 An Internal Static IP Address

Thanks. I'll go ahead and move it to the correct area. I just assumed that this would be the correct location, but after you mentioned this, I found a better place to ask this. – Usta Feb 5 at 4:20
