Downloading a file from above the /www directory

[Beren]

Hello, is there any way to download files I'm keeping stored above the www
folder for security ?

I'm thinking of the following : My script determines what file the user
requests, checks their credentials, and then "forwards" the file from the
non public directory to the user.

Would this work ?

Thanks in advance
