Write To Text File In Password Protected Directory
I have a form mail script that sends an email and then writes to a text file using Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").
The problem I am having is that the information needs to be saved in a Password Protected Directory. When I try to save the info it gives me a permission denied error.
I had my hosting company change the permission on the directory and the script was working ok but now it isn't.
Is there a way to pass the username and password in the script so I don't have to worry about the hosting company messing this up?
how to password protect a directory (downloads) on a Windows NT Server? UNIX is a breeze. It seems like you need an Act of God to get Windows to do the same?
I have a client who has a password protected page (via session) that lists a bunch of pdf's. They are a little worried that you are able to browse and see the pdf's via the url without being logged in.
I'm not sure if it's possible or not but is there a way after their username and passord is verified to automatically grant them permisson to view the contents of the pdf directory?
I have a site that is using .asp mainly for SSI. There is a login section where the user types in their login and password, and this allows access to the member area of the site. So far so good. However, once in the member area, the user could bookmark that page and get back to it anytime without having to login again. Therefore, they could just email the link to friends and anybody could access it. (and yes, if they wanted they could email the login and password - but I can't stop that). I have another site that uses a single login/password to access restricted areas, but it's done with .php Any ideas about a quick code insert that could use their login/password to gain access (per session) to a certain file folder.I hope it's not an obvious answer
Im running a site on IIS6 and its got a link to a protected directory.. Authentication required, so user enters their username and password and it gives them access to the directory.
now however we want to use the same link but different users.. so whoever clicks the button it prompts for login information but then redirects them to their own directory per their username/password. any ideas for me to investigate ? maybe an index.asp that waits for username and then redirects ? is there a simpler way ?
I have created a password protected area on my website using session variable. I used a pre-programmed package on the internet using ASPLogin not the very expensive company software- another more basic type from another company! A user can log in OK for the first time, however, when he/she next visits within a couple of days or more the login screen says that they are already logged in., and because of this, they cannot log in and have to wait for the session variable to expire.
I am using both Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer and both are having the same problem. I am not too sure of what is going wrong here, as ideally, each time they have logged out I would like them to log back in OK again.
I am trying to create a website where user is required to login first to view members page.
I want user to come to my website. They can move around in free sections where I give examples of the lessons that are to be taught. But if they need to few the whole lesson then I want them to signup first. Signup is free.
I want to use ASP to do that.
if you know any tutorial or have an example which tells how to do that, please let me know.
I know how i can list and manage files (with the file object) on a normal directory with ASP. But i couldn't find any information on how do i list/work with files which are locaed on a password protected directory (with basick auth). how to make such a task ?
the hosting control panel gives the ability ot make a login for the directory you want to secure , but i want to make a logout for this login , how could this be done ?
I have a client who has repeatedly asked about getting a site-wide search engine for their website. There's arguments for and against, but I'm more worried about the practical aspects of the request.
The site is largely composed of password-protected pages. Member data is stored in an Access database. The pages are all secured by a basic include file that checks against session variables to see if the user is logged in. If "yes," they can see the page. If "no," they are redirected to a login page. Standard stuff.
One of my biggest arguments against the search engines is that since they can't get into the protected pages to index them, those pages will not be included in search results. Since the protected pages make up about 90% of the site, this pretty much renders the search engine useless.
Have any of you encountered a similar situation? Any thoughts on a way for the search engine to index those protected pages?
As far as the search engine goes, I was planning on cheating and using a form that sends requests to a simple google site search (it works surprisingly well on the non-password protected pages), although I'm open to other suggestions if you have any.
An ASP page on my IIS server converts an uploaded word document to HTML, but I'm having a problem with it failing (hanging and popup requesting password on server!) on password protected word documents. (web upload, backend processing and web delivery)
I spent the whole day on google to find a solution. What I am looking for is an asp script or a property that can look at a word document and just return a yes or no as to whether it is protected, so I can then refuse to upload it, until the user has removed the protection.
Client said "Yea, our current host does PHP and all that" and of course they don't. I know PHP, so hopefully it is somewhat similar to ASP. Anyway...I want to know how to take information from an HTML form and write the info to a text file. It is going to be *very* basic as I only need to write one line to the text file.
It is just so the client can type in the monthly loan rate, or something like that, and save that info to a text file. Then, show the text file on all the pages.
I am working on a safetywear deduction system and i need to perform the following functions: write to a text file and read from a test file and wrute to a table in the database. I need code to write and read to a text file in asp please.
Greetings- <br><br>I have a site that is kind of a portal site- many sites within a single site. Users of the site must use a single logon page that redirects the user to a predetermined "subsite".
Each "subsite" has a few different session variables that are used in varying ways to display information germaine to that user. <br><br>My customer (the portal owner) wants users to be able to render any page on the site to a .PDF that is then sent via email to the user.
I can render an HTML file to PDF via a .COM object, but the problem is that I cannot figure out how to render the .ASP page to HTML. My initial thought was to use MSXMLHTTP to GET the page, but when I do this, the GET method always returns the logon page.
<br><br>What I'd like to do is have a link to a processor page that just "captures" the HTML as it's sent to the browser and writes it to a static HTML file, which I can then easily turn into a PDF. Anyone have any ideas?
Field type is varchar and some data is unicode like this "•õ" It is a chinese. How do I transfer the data I retrive from DB and then I can write it into an text file with its proper chinese word using FileSystemObject. Or any other way ?
I have an asp page that writes to a text file. Can someone tell me what the correct permissions should be on the network - so it's safe from various users coming in to manipulate any files?
I have a text file that has two lines in it, the first line gives item labels, my second line gives values for those labels. I would like to use ASP to present this data on a web page. I also want the page to reload every 10 seconds so that any updates to the text file would be relfected on the web page.
I previously used PWS on Win 98. Nothing special had to be done locally for a directory that contained an Access database.
But on the Web host I had to do this:
Access Permissions | [Go to proper folder] | Anonymous account given permission of Change
Now I've just gotten a PC with Win XP Pro and have just installed IIS. My development Web sites work fine locally except whenever the ASP page tries to write data to the database, then there is an error message at the line that first tries to write data.
What can I do to modify my settings?
I read something about NTFS, but my PC's drive is not set up with that. Is NTFS something that I need or is there hopefully another solution?
i'm developing a site but i'm still new to ASP..i could only code a simple DB [add/edit/remove] coding..
i need to creat accounts for users, so i must have a LOGIN page contains all the standard such as: Logout, register new user,remember password ,,
users who should register in my site , are previously stored in DB by a KEY field..not to allow any user to register..a new user should only insert that key,if it is exist in my record,i shall allow him to view some pages.
I cannot find any information on how to insert an image into a block of text and have the text wrap around the image. All if the text and graphics in the client's site are being pulled from the database using response.write. When I write straight HTML, it is easy to place an image into a block of text and align the image right or left, having the text wrap around the image.
I'm coding a page where you can download a lot of different files( 100-1000) but I don't want to code each file(linking and all) it would take weeks to do that. I tried with a database and asp code rding the databse but it not saving a lot of time since I got to complete the databse.
I wanna know if we can code with asp something to automaticly read each file and list them in html so I dont have to code 1000 x the samee thing.
I'm more of a LAMP person than an ASP/windows type (I'll be honest I haven't got a clue about ASP). Anyway, I'm looking for a way to password protect a file. Normally under a unix box I would just use .htaccess and .htpasswd to use http authentication but I don't have a clue how I would do such a thing under a windows box.
I have made a secure website which you can only get access to with right username and password. On this webpage I have some links to some pdf-files, but how can I avoid people from getting the file if they are not logged on first? As it is now they can easily get the file if they just know the exact URL-address, ex:
www.website.com/dir/file1.pdf
If people type the URL above I would like them to be redirected to the logon-page first. I can't use components or MS-Access database, so I'm looking for another solution.
I want to write few lines to one file called log.txt. This log.txt is located in one directory called log.dir This log.dir is located in webroot (mysite.com/log.dir/) I protected this directory using password protection from my hoting control panel. So if I want to see log.txt file using browser, I have to enter username and password. It works fine.
I have a asp file in webroot called my.asp This file writes some text in log.txt file. I tested this using firefox browser. All worked fine. You may wonder, where is the problem then? The problem is Internet Explorer. When I tested my.asp file using IE, it asks for username and password to proceed further. I want to avoid this.
How can I write to a file located in password protected directory that will work with IE? I know it look stupid. ASP work on server side so it should work with IE if it works with FireFox. But trust me, it's not working .
