FTP(File Transfer Protocol ) configuration and testing in Windows Server 2008 R2

First of all you have to know  what the FTP is "File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer files from one host or to another host over a TCP-based network".

FTP Installation & Configuration:

Step 1:
Install the Web Server role with the IIS Management Console and FTP Server role services:
Step 2:
Add a new FTP Site

Step 3:
Setup the site with the default bindings and choose Allow SSL to avoid deploying a certificate:  
 Step 4:
Configure user permissions and basic or anonymous permission. If your server is connected to your domain you can specify domain users, otherwise they must be local user accounts:
Note:Finally you’ll have to configure your server’s firewall rules to allow access.Disregard any existing FTP firewall rules; although they should be enabled, they don’t actually allow access! Run Allow a Program Through Windows Firewall and grant access to C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe

Testing your newly created FTP site 
At this point of this poor article you have to download Filezilla-client Application if you have not already.
To test  FTP you need to have a basic understanding and working experience of filezilla .Here is a sample picture using FTP via Filezilla.Fill up host field,user(user1 or user2..) and password field according to your configuration.And its quite easy.Thanks.

This may occur if you are calling Dispose() on the context, or wrapping the context in a using statement. If you are using dependency injection, you should let the dependency injection container take care of disposing context instances. Object name: 'PropertyContext'.  public class CustomerHub : Hub     {         public readonly ICustomerService _customerService;         private readonly IServiceScopeFactory _serviceScopeFactory;         public CustomerHub(ICustomerService service, IServiceScopeFactory serviceScopeFactory)         {             _customerService = service;             _serviceScopeFactory = serviceSco...
