Renaming ioFTPd.exe

[Mick]

Hi!

I want to set up my own FTP Server @home but the Problem is it only runs when the exe is called ioFTPd.exe.
But I dont want to have it running under this name, I want it to call MyFTPD.exe. As soon as I rename it it doesnt start anymore!

Trust me, your ftp at home will work just as good if it is named ioFTPD.exe or MyFTPD.exe....
Absolutely no need in the world to rename it.

Well the Problem is I want to run 2 instances of the Program the same time, so one is called ioFTPd.exe and the other MyFTPd.exe

there should be no problem running 2 instances of ioftpd from 2 seperate directories, /ioFTPD & /ioFTPD2

not to mention this sort of thing rings alarms bells

ioFTPD.exe is protected to stop the renaming of the executable
basically to stop people from using it in ways it shouldnt be used
