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.

Thank you,
Chandran...
