Please coul someone help me, I have just descovered that all my clients can add files any where they want on the server using asp (I've got a raq4 with chilliasp).
Is there a way to set it to only be able to do this with one site and not the others, I want the users to still be able to create files but only on their own account !
Also, I cant create a file using php it says that it is not allowed, can I change the settings just for one site?

Finally, I've just instaled phpmyadmin, how do I securise config.inc.php I've used a chmod 660 but people can still download it and then open it to see the password ! Can you use a .httaccess but would I have to add each user to a list every time I added a new user? Is there a better way to do this.

Finally, how do you create a .httaccess, I'm new to telnet so could you tell me how to do it step by step please,

Richard

Don't know about ASP, I've never used it.

If you like to created a password protected directory, do this:

Create a .htaccess file in the directory which contains:


AuthUserFile /home/sites/siteXY/users/username/passwd
AuthName "Bla Bla"
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET POST PUT>
require valid-user
</Limit>


Replace siteXY and username. Note: the file should not created below the web root, it's in the users home.

Telnet to your RAQ and cd to the user dir

cd /home/sites/siteXY/users/username

Create the passwd file

touch passwd

Add user to the passwd file

htpasswd /home/sites/siteXY/users/username/passwd username

htpasswd will ask you now for a password for this use. Now you're done.
