password to protect a folder

[Guest]

Is it possible to protect a folder?

 

[Mark Fitzpatrick]

Not with FrontPage. The FrontPage security model is not granular enough and
only enables settings permissions on a web as a whole and not the various
folders within it.

Hope this helps,

Yes. Convert the folder to a subweb and set permissions.
(If your host allows it)

See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;825451
Your host will have to support subwebs and unique permissions under the FP Server Extensions

Hi
So does this mean that a database in the fpdb folder can
be viewed by anyone

No.
If the extensions are properly configured the fpdb folder is protected
against casual browsing by anonymous users, as is the _private folder.

The database cannot be downloaded, even if the anonymous user knows its
name.
