How to upload a file as Read only

Uploading the file to the server is no problem, but I don't want an
admin to upload some document to the server, and then have someone
able to change this document. I simply want to set read only on all
files uploaded to the server. Is there a simple way to do this in
ASP.Net?

Upload the files, then move it to a directory set to read only using some
form of directory watcher........ ..or interact with the ACL list. You will
have to call the appropriate Win 32 API functions through the P/Invoke layer
as I dont belive there are any native classes in .NET to do this.... Someone
has already written a wrapper to allow you to do ACL control in .NET though

This works fine. The doctors want fewer steps to follow.

Note: You may skip to the end of the article if all you want is the perl code. Introduction Uploading files from a local computer to a remote web server has many useful purposes, the most obvious of which is the sharing of files. For example, you upload images to a server to share them with other people over the Internet.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
