Dear newsreaders,
Access to aspx-pages can be prevented for example checking authentication
cookie
on page_onload part of code.
But is there any way to prevent direct access to indivual files (eg.
picture.jpg , video.wmv )
so that instead of showing file contents there would be a redirection to an
authentication form ?
The idea here is to prevent direct / hotlinking to my web site resources.
I am using a hosting service, so I do not have access to IIS settings.
I would appreciate any idea.
best regards,
Petri

Write an iHTTPModule that checks for the referrer and redirect if its not
coming from within one of your pages.

I have a directory with files (of various formats) contained within a
website which uses PHP to control user access via session variables. I would
like to protect the directory from direct external linking (e.g. prevent
people typing "http://www.mysite.com/protected-directory/file.doc" into the
address bar for example), so that users must log on to the website first to
gain access to them. Currently, I've used a .htaccess file, but this...

I'm trying to compile an open source game called IVAN
, and I'm able to compile it from a makefile, but
not from an IDE. I have attempted to recreate the way the makefile
compiles the project as closely as possible, yet I'm getting odd
linking errors. I think I've traced it to some kind of problem with
the SDL libraries it uses, yet I can't explain why it will compile from
the makefile and not from the IDE. I have made sure that the ide...

I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
