• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

How do I prevent users from accessing a folder?

Hi there

I know it has to do with permissions but ...

I have a folder that has a database and I want only server to be able to access it, not users. If a user knows a file name it can download the mdb file by default. How to prevent the user to download the file?

I tried removing read access to the IUSER but it goes back to default :-( I guess it has to do something with children and parent propagating...

an anybody tell me how to do it? Should I disable propagating to the child permissions?

Jerry
 
Plesk will configure this settings back and give IUSR read permission to that file.
It is better to use Protected directory
 
Aha, I thought of that... And I set user and password to it as jklfdjkldjkjksd :)

PS - But this is a Plesk "problem", isn't it? In Windows I can configure using permissions...
