On my server, I have a network drive and I want to get access to this drive through Filezilla. The main problem is that every time I'm trying to get there with Filezilla, the client connection is lost with Error 550. I have read a lot about this problem and almost every reply is about making a new windows account but I can't make it. It have to work with other Filezilla clients.

How to make network drive "Visible" in Filezilla client? Please, help!

Step 1 : Add new user with share folder as normal on Filezilla FTP server

Step 2 : Modify %filezilla_server_install_folder%\FileZilla Server.xml

example : Permission Dir="D:\" to Permission Dir="\192.168.11.99\nc"

Step 3: Create "computer user" on client PC same as "user log on to access file" on \192.168.11.99 with same password

Step 4 : Open Services on Client PC , find Mozilla Server FTP server, Right Mouse >> Properties >> Log On tab Choose Logon As >> This Acount >> Select account user in Step 3, enter password

Step 5: Stop and Start again this Services

This is a permissions issue. The user/service that the Filezilla server is running on, does not have permission to access the location you are trying to reach.

You'll need to give permissions to the user/service account that is running Filezilla Server, to that network drive.

You will then also need to tell the Filezilla Server that the location is valid for FTP access.
