Preventing that a txt file can be read.
In Apache it works like this:
| Code: | <Files *.txt>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files> |
Is it possible with Abyss Webserver?
thanks |

Just make it with a .php ending and php will try to process it. Make sure the contents is inbetween <?php and ?> tags though. This should work.
You could try password protecting the directory the text file is in.

I think, with Abyss I can protect also the .txt file with a password, is that correct? |

If you protect a directory with the file in then yes you can, otherwise Im not sure if you can do single files.

You learn something new every day :-) Single files can be protected :-)

You can use Abyss's "IP Address Controle" feature which limits access to files
to a given IP/IP Address range. Check it out, that should be what you wanted.

MarkusL,
Add an IP control rule for virtual path /*.txt and deny access to all IP addresses (add * in the Denied IP addresses table).
