When you install the FTP Server services, the necessary software is also installed so that you can monitor and graph various FTP Server statistics using Performance Monitor. Using Performance Monitor to view activity on remote Windows NT systems makes FTP Server administration more convenient when you are administering multiple Windows NT FTP Servers.
The FTP Server performance counters are cleared each time you start and stop the FTP Server service.
