Maybe you could try to use a content manager like Jakarta Slide (http://jakarta.apache.org/slide). It could let you manage the rights with ACL and control the access to the resource without direct HTTP access. I mean, you could use one server to run Jetspeed and your access portlet, and another, accessed through HTTP or WebDAV, running Slide. Thus there would not be direct - external - access to the files.

Hi!
I would need no write a Portlet that initiates a download, when a button is clicked. The situation is:
I have some files somewhere in the filesystem. I don't want to make them accesible through HTTP directly if I can avoid it. Each user should only have access so certain files, not to all. The Portlet should list the user all his allowed files and he should be able to start downloading them by clicking a button. How could the action class initiate the download?
Any help is appreciated!
