Hi All,
As usual, I want stuff well beyond the level of my current (half-) competence; namely, I want to put a private upload directory on my site, to receive files from friends who would rather upload than send by email (more convenient for me, too, since I’m on dial-up only).
So how could I set this up?
I already made a directory, under my /www directory, and called it upload. I’ll put a default.htm file there which will send the browser to my home page. That, I think, will take care of browsers exploring any subdirectories under /www, unless they have the URL for the upload driectory – or – am I on the wrong track with this?
I guess I also need a login of some sort – would that be an .ht[password] file or something like that? Where a visitor (legitimate uploader) would enter a username and a password, and then be permitted to upload?
Can somebody sketch out examples of how I could do this?
Thanks a million in advance!
