directly to private/includefile.php can run the script without authorising themselves... Is it possible to set folder permission such that files inside it cant be open directly but could be included?
Can you just give read permissions -only- to the user that PHP runs as
and
not these other users?
Just put these kinda directives outside webscope, I.E.: /home/USER/public_html/ /home/USER/private/ -- Med venlig hilsen / best regards ComX Networks A/S Kim Madsen Systemudvikler/Systemdeveloper Thanks that works as well :)
