Thank you very much for the reply Darrel & Matt. This site is to be developed using Divine Content Server with iPlanet. Divine provides a secure way of delivering content(blobs) to the user. But I was looking different solutions to serve the documents serving through file system and NOT through app server. We have PDFs with 12MB and I do not want to server through app server since it reduce the performance. On top I could try by encryption and decryption but there should be some other simple way to do this.
