creating windows users from asp page?

We are trying to create a basic "signup for demo download" where user enters
info, gets an email with user/pass to go and ftp download the demo. FTP
currently is using NT security. Is it possible to create an NT user from
ASP? Or is there any other tactic that is more standard?

Thanks in advance!

ADSI should let you create users but if you will be having a lot of them you
may want to rethink this.
Can you use HTTP for the download or does it have to be FTP? You could
easily regulate it with HTTP.

Curt -

Thanks, after looking over a few posts, I think I will do it with
application level security and http download.
