Hey all,

What is the most efficient way to provide files for download to a client
after username/password authentication *without* using NT Authentication.

The simple way is to validate the user using CF and then just display the
documents using CFDirectory, but, if anyone know the URL to the document,
they can bypass the cfm template altogether.  I was thinking about randomly
renaming documents and storing the filenames in a DB, but that seems sloppy
too.

This client is currently in a virtual hosting environment, so adding
directory security seems out of the question.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

- jim
