Hi Mike, I can say you we did something of similar. Now I tell you, and I hope it could give you any idea:
We had some web servers (Apache), we used an authentication based on OpenLDAP, we wrote some Apache Modules in order to permit that when a user was recognized, in the attributes of Ldap there was his logical directory (there was a fileSystem in which the directories was numbered, and in any directory, the user had his index.html and so on). If he/she was recognized, reading his own attributes on Openldap, he saw his proper "part of filesystem", via Web (on a PHP page) and from there, there was the option to do an upload or download (for this, you can use for example the dwnload http, or if you want ftp, for example an instance of proftpd invoked....) I hope what I wrote can be of any help for you Bye /Erik "In God we trust, ALL OTHERS we monitor." -- NSA, Intercept Operators's motto, 1970 --- Mike Carney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ha scritto: > Hello All, > > Thank you in advance for those who reply. > > We are currently looking at a way to protect the > download of our products on an ftp server.
