Err Msg: "530 Anonymous Cannot Login. Login Failed" Using FTPLast reviewed: May 7, 1997Article ID: Q101897 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSAn attempt to connect using the FTP service from a remote workstation to a Windows NT or Windows NT Advanced Server as "Anonymous" fails and the client receives the following message:
530 Anonymous cannot login Login failed. CAUSEThis problem occurs when the Anonymous login connection is not configured correctly on the FTP host workstation, or the Guest account has been disabled. The Windows NT Server service supports "Anonymous Connections" which allow a remote client to establish an FTP session without its password being visible through the physical network line or in the FTP server utility. The Windows NT implementation of the FTP Server service maps the Anonymous login to the Guest account user name and password stored in the security database on the host workstation. NOTE: The account you use for anonymous connections must reside in the local security database on the host machine, or the host's domain security database. It cannot reside in an account on a trusted domain.
RESOLUTIONTo support Anonymous Connections to the FTP server, match the Anonymous user name and password to that of the Guest account of the Windows NT FTP host computer. To verify that Anonymous connections are configured correctly, perform the following five steps:
If the Guest account has been disabled, re-enable it by starting User Manager in the Administrative Tools group, open the Guest account, clear the Account Disabled check box, and then choose OK.
