Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
I'm a big fan of Dantor.com. I know for a fact you have access above your web root. as for the space and bandwidth, they have different packages, most of them below the $27 you're spending now. I've been using them for projects for about 6 years...stable, responsive, nicely priced. And as contradictory as it may sound, i'm not affiliated with them in any way other than as a customer. ;) Doug :0) I'm currently a CrystalTech customer. For $27/month I get 1GB of disk space and 100GB of bandwidth to name a few. The only thing thats missing is access to a folder above my webroot so I can store docs outside of my site for security. This way I can retrieve them with cfcontent and keep the docs from url access. Does anyone know of a CFhost provider that has access to folder above the clients webroot and offer cfdirectory and cffile along with high storage and bandwidth? ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:236257 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54

Oh, and they've always proven themselves to be very good about keeping up with version updates. They are using MX7 and sql 2005. I'm a big fan of Dantor.com.

RE: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
Does anyone know of a CFhost provider that has access to folder above the clients webroot and offer cfdirectory and cffile along with high storage and bandwidth? I have a site with CFDynamics and they have all you request, with their 49.95/month plan. Their less expensive plans do restrict cffile and cfdirectory. But you can get 15% off by paying for a year. http://www.cfdynamics.com/sharedhosting/sharedhosting_comparison.cfm -- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA - | 1 | | - Binary Soduko | | | - C code.

Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
I can do that for you. My standard packages dont cater for that big a site but that doesnt mean i couldnt do it. I can configure a package for you however you like . And I think its almost essential ot have access to a level above the web root, for teh very purpose you're talking about. And we have full sandbox security so you can have cffile and cfdirectory turned on. (they're off by default but I turn them on for most of my own sites) Have a look at my packages at http://afpwebworks.com but ignore the disk space, bandwidth and pricing - if you're interested we'll work out something specific for you that meets your needs.

Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
The only thing thats missing is access to a folder above my webroot so I can store docs outside of my site for security. The is a way to get around this problem: - store your docs in a special directory, but change the name to whatever.cfm - save the true name and type in your database. - put a file Application.cfm in the same directory that just contain CFABORT - make a tamplate to download the document with something like: cfheader name=Content-Disposition value=attachment; filename=#trueFileName# CFCONTENT TYPE=application/octet-stream FILE=#pathDoc##localName# where trueFileName is the original file name of the document, pathDoc is the path where documents are stored as CFM files, and localName is the actual name of the file. -- ___ REUSE CODE!

RE: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
Claude has a good solution there, but you could also have them create a secure directory that only you and the CF user has access to. Throw in an .htaccess file (or it's equivalent in the windows world if that's what you're on), so spiders don't try to index it. -Original Message- From: Claude Schneegans [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 27, 2006 1:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder The only thing thats missing is access to a folder above my webroot so I can store docs outside of my site for security.

Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
You're serious about this? are you sure you didn't just setup your default
dreamweaver site to show from www/
I took a look at the hosting plan and of course there is nothing there about
this except the following. They allow you to host unlimited Microsoft Access
Databases on your site. Are they really saying you need to host those in
your www directory? javascript:BringUpWindow('popups/access.htm')
You've got to be missing something... I went though a period where I was
changing hosting companies like socks and I've never seen that. Especially
since I've seen people post crystaltech from time to time.

RE: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
I have been around and around fighting for a potential client on this
Issue and they are dead set there is no directory access outside the
root web folder.

Re: CF Hosting w/access above root folder
HostMySite provides access to the account root, serving web content from a folder under that.
