Encrypt/Decrypt Files
There are lots of examples on using these functions on strings. However, is it possible to use these functions to encrypt/decrypt entire files (not .cfm code files), for example, to maintain security in an FTP server, etc. TNX for any pointers. -- Rick ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358890 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
Re: Encrypt/Decrypt Files
Hey Rick, You can use more secure forms of FTP as opposed to getting that draconian - just a thought ;-) I haven't done any file encryption in a while, so I'll bow out on that detail - but yes it is doable.

Re: Encrypt/Decrypt Files
Just to clarify, the problem is not in the transmission, which can be accomplished by FTPs, etc. Once the file resides on the shared FTP server, it needs to be encrypted to maintain security. So, I think the flow is: (1) transmit plain file up to server, and (2) encrypt on the server. Reverse the flow to download.

Re: Encrypt/Decrypt Files
Thank you. Good start. There is the question of the best way to keep track of keys for various, different files; or use the same key for all files without exposing it. As you can see, I am very much a security novice when it comes to this stuff.

Replicate cache across multiple CF servers
Hi All, Need help with replicating cache across clustered CF8 servers. I have an application running on single server and i was caching some commonly used data in Application scope. There is a logic tied in my caching object such that when data changes the cache is rebuild. Now we are moving to clustered server environment with 3 three servers. If the cached data changes I need to replicate them across other servers. I want the other servers to go to database and get new data. How can I achieve this. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:358895 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: help
As I told you four days ago: Instead of a physical path like C:\magedirector\imagename.ext you need a url like http://domainname.com/imagedirectory/imagename.ext You use the physical path to determine if the file exists, but you need the url to display it.
