After reading your posts a couple times I'm wondering if the real problem is
the way you have your doc directory setup.
Perhaps you should not use the docs directory for any vhosts instead create
them under (suggestion only) /users so it might look like this.
Not like this:
d:/sambar/docs/
d:/sambar/docs/vhost1/
d:/sambar/docs/vhost2/
Like this:
d:/sambar/users/
d:/sambar/users/vhost1/
d:/sambar/users/vhost2/
Now because in the config.ini you have set the default path to Documents
Directory = /docs/ you can either set a basic page there to redirect odd
traffic like your direct IP or you could go the extra step and create a
vhost for your ip. What I have done is created a vhost that is under
security for the docs directory and changed my config.ini to Documents
Directory = D:/home/ where I have a info page.
Bottom line in my opinion its not a good idea to have the vhosts under your
root directory.

RE: [sambar] WebFolders Problem {03}Thank you for your replies.
I am not sure when WebFolders came into play with Sambar, but I just
upgraded to the new Server 5.2 beta 4 and noticed that the WebFolders item
was there. I haven't ever noticed it before really. I like the online
version, because when you login to the desktop, it automatically takes you
to your 'home' directory and you can't go above that.
I did some more tests, and found out that if the IP address of the server is
typed in, then everyone can see the full contents of the web directory.
However, if you just only use the domain name used, then they only have
access to that directory, and only the user that owns that directory can
make any changes.

Then you will need to follow the second suggestion and disable WebDAV on
your end. I'm not sure what version of Sambar you are using, but WebDAV has
been part of every Sambar build since 5.0 (5.0 betas & production, 5.1 betas
& production, and 5.2 betas) and possibly since 4.4 (I don't have a 4.4
server installed to verify this, but I could in about three minutes if need
be).
To read more about Sambar, WebDAV, WebFolders, Internet Explorer, and
security, read the Sambar documentation.

The whole issue is the fact that the Sambar Server allows people to log in
using webfolders, so I cannot go to my client's computers and uninstall
that.
What I need is to find a way to disable the WebFolders feature from the
Sambar Server itself. Past releases did not have this WebFolders feature,
and, I do not want to revert back to an older version unless I have to.
But, I feel this poses a security threat since all of my clients can log in
using WebFolders interface, and gain complete control to anyone else's
webspace.
