Posting PDF's securely on the internet

[Joris De Groote]

Hello,

I have to create something to access PDF files through the internet.
However, these PDF files can not be accessed by simply typing in the name
(for example: http://www.pdffiles.com/test.pdf ). The URL for accessing the
file is with a link like this:
http://www.pdffiles.com/SDCVUJHTGFRFVNJKO9764FB .
Do you know how this could be possible? Is there some program that could do
this? Or does this has to be written from scratch?

Thanks
Joris

Hi Joris,

If you don’t want these file to be accessed directly, put the files outside
web virtual directory. Then in a .net page to show file:

Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment[or inline]; filename="
+ file_name);
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.WriteFile(File_Path);
