IIS FTP on domain will not authenticate with local user accounts

I need to setup an FTP server on my domain to replace an old one. Server is 2019 and I configured standard IIS with FTP without issue (no isolation) and Basic Authentication. I can connect via FTP on port 21 using my domain account. I created a local computer account to the server and gave it Modify on the FTP root folder, but everytime I try to logon with the local user and password I get:

220 Microsoft FTP Service

200 OPTS UTF8 command successful - UTF8 encoding now ON.

User (x.x.x.x:(none)): ftpupload

331 Password required

Password:

530 User cannot log in.

Login failed.

ftp>

I've tried changing permissions, resetting password setting to logon as service and can not figure it out.
