Hello :-)

I have more than 20.000 photos online.

just now I have three folders. one private, one public and one for family only

This makes use of approx twice the minimum size (the private one is nearly made of family+public).

All this is on my own server

I have the folders protected by <Directory> directives (there is one "public", one "private" and one "family" directory)

knowing the sort between public and private is done on the folder level (not individual photos), could I use direct links in the public and family directories instead of real copies?

I don't want anybody to be able to see all the images and I'm not sure of what a link can do with <directory> access

any hind welcome

general index is here:

thanks jdd

Yes you can keep all your photos in a totally different place, and access them with links stored in the appropriate directories. There is a setting for Apache that can control whether or not it will follow links. One picture may be linked into several other directories. Users would still only be able to see the pictures linked into the directory they were authorized to browse. -- A computer without Microsoft is like a chocolate cake without mustard. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
