530 Valid hostname is expected.

When connecting to IIS7 using FTP you get the following error.
Response: 530 Valid hostname is expected.
Error: Could not connect to server
Reason
When you set up name-based FTP services IIS7 wants the site name defined with the username so that IIS7 can associate the username with the site they wish to log in to.
Host: Mydomain.com
User: Mydomain.com|Username
Works with Filezilla
