You know that "dot" files are hidden files ? I´m not shure, but I think
they cannot be read by other users
then these, where the user id is smaller then 500. If you want to use them,
try to fread() them.
If you try to hide a file for listing, set the approbiate filetype in the
httpd.conf.
So just rename this to mydotfile.secret and avoid listing via:
<Files ~ "*.secret">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Files>
then add this type to allow php to parse them
AddType application/x-httpd-php .secret
and include them as normal >include"mydotfile.secret"<
