Hello all.
I have a client who wants to be able to restrict access to a PDF file to a
specific user. They want a control panel where they can create a user with
username/password and upload the PDF. So far so good.
But what is the best way to restrict access to the PDF ? I was thinking of
storing it above the root so that it was not in the public domain, when the
user requests it, prompt for username/password and then copy the file with a
random filename to a public place. Then delete is straight afterwards.
There has to be a better way though ?
thanks
Zoe
