I'm hoping someone can give a little advise. We have a customer that provides his software via a www address. We've setup .htaccess on this folder with a single username/password. So he supplies this user/pass to people that pay to get his software. He now wants to have control over the username/passwords. He also wants to have groups so that he can set which programs his customers can download. He also wants it all logged. I don't see this happening via .htaccess so I'm thinking of developing a simple PHP/MYSQL interface. So the customer comes to a login page, authenticates to a MYSQL database, is assigned a cookie and is allowed access to which ever programs his group allows. This is fine and dandy, but how do I prevent that person from taking the direct link to the file and giving it to someone else? I'm sure there is a much better and simpler way. Idea's?
