Mess around with the mime maps for your IIS server, define that file extension as anything other than clear-text, I think that will tell the browser to treat it as an attachment and not open it up in the browser.

That's what I'm trying to get away from. Actually have it pop up to open or download. my users have problems understanding right click.
Plus I'm rewriting it so that have to enter username and password to get to the link.

In internet explorer right click your link and choose "Save Target As"

Ok, I'm running IIS 5.0 on my imail server. I've written a program to read the ldap and create a ldif file.
I put the ldif file (xxx.ldif) in a sub directory on the web server and when I put a link to it, it displays it directly in the browser.
I want it to download, not display as text.
 
Any ideas on how to config IIS to make it download?
 
P.S. Once I get this program fully functional I'll put it out on my personal web site for download if anyone wants it. It's a console app made with .net that will create: csv, ldif, alias, or list-lst/txt files from the ldap.
