Is it possible to set user access levels to files stored on a web server.

I am uploading files using an asp componet to a members area.

However, if someone knew the URL then thay could access the file/download it.

I want to restrict access of the files to registered members only.

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

If you're running Apache you can use .htaccess and .htpasswd files to control access either at the file or directory level.
