How to create FTP symbol server

WINDBG
1

Now I want to create symbol server on the internal FTP.

I can create netbios symbols server like this \111.111.111.111\symsrv.
I can get the symbols from http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

But I can not create symbol server like this ftp://111.111.111.111/symsrv.
When I load this symbols, I set sympath as symsrv*symsrv.dll*d:\ftpsymbols
*ftp://111.111.111.111/symsrv.

Does anyone know how to symbol server in the ftp site.

Thanks in advance.

To setup a symbol server

  1. Use symstore.exe to add symbols & binaries to the server
  2. Decide how you want to share it out (file share, FTP or HTTP)
    2a) For fileshare simply make a share for the symbol
    server root dir and you are done (unless you want to fiddle with access
    permissions)
    2b) For FTP simply make the symbol server root a virtual
    dir. The FTP server also needs to accept anon connections
    2c) For HTTP simply make the symbol server root a
    virtual dir. You can add authentication and SSL and such if you want.

Unless you are sharing it over the internet I recommend going the
fileshare route. It is easier to setup and manage. It also performs
better.
