Accessing *.htm files on hard drive

[stevew]

I want to allow access to some some cdrom products I've installed on the hard drive. They use html indexes to access the data.

One of the links is c:/mitchell/m1domeng/index.htm

I can access them using the following url.txt but this leaves the c: wide open.

+c:

-all

+www.ondemand5.com
+www.ondemand5.com/odweb.asp
+www.ondemand5.com/login/ipauthwelcome.asp
+www.ondemand5.com/mric/mric.asp

I've tried adding the link
+c:/mitchell/m1domeng/index.htm and removing the +c: and am denied access.

I've tired various combinations of +c:/.... with no luck.

Is there any way to permit access to certain files on the hard drive while denying access to others?

Try using the begins with regular expression character and the double backslash.

-all
+^c:\\mitchell\\m1domeng\\

You should be able to limit it to a file, but usually limiting it to the folder is sufficient to thwart most while allowing the page to run properly.
