Hello everybody
I am trying to develop a simple web-site which needs a valid login. I have
some files on the same server and in the same folder. I want to prevent any
non-users from looking at this content. Can my initial login page take care
of the security of my entire directory.
Here is an example of what I am trying to say: I have a login page which
posts a request to a servlet that checks if the user information is correct
and then loads an html page. Then there are links to a few other files from
this HTML file. Right now if a user types the links directly he can see all
of them. I need some mechanism to redirect him to the login page if he tries
to access these links.
I hope my question is understandable. I am not sure either, if a servlet
could offer a solution. I am sorry if this is the wrong list that I mailed
my question to.
Thanks,
Kalyan
