Help with setting up a file for download.
« on: September 10, 2010, 02:10:07 AM »
I wanted to put a file on my server in a sub folder and create a guest ftp account w/ access only to that folder; but I don't have an extra ftp account.
 
Does anyone know if I can pull off such a feat with MySQL?  Is this the correct arena?  If so, how?
 
I code but my SQL's limited to my old dBase/Lotus123 skills...

If you need to give access to just one file or to files in a directory, you can do this with .htaccess and .htpasswd

Here is quick guide how you can do this: Password protecting directory without php scripting
