In order to support uploading of images, for either the DotNetGallery control or the editor control, what do the permissions of the directory on the server have to be?

 

Is there any support for password protected directories?

 

Without a password secured directory any directory that is given write permissions will immediately become a target for hackers. Is there any way around this?

You can do something like this:

 

Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
     If IsAdmin Then
         gallery1.ShowUpload = True   
         gallery1.ShowBatchBuild = True    
     Else
         gallery1.ShowUpload = Fasle
         gallery1.ShowBatchBuild = Fasle
     End If
 End Sub

 

Hope it helps.

 

What if the directory you want to upload into needs to be password protected, is there any way to send a password with the upload?
