在Windows中以网站结构打开文件夹

Question

I am trying to set up a hyperlink to open a Windows Explorer, so that it can display a folder on the web server that is within the web site.

So in IIS, we have inetpub/MyWebSite/subFolder/Data/

I would like to allow for a web page hyper link to open the folder /Data

I can set up a user account on the web server and only provide access to this folder. I can use ASP Membeship to restrict access here, and/or assign the Network Service acccount access.

I don't really care who can see this folder as anything that gets placed in here will only be temporary, and nothing is "Mission Critical" just a file that the web site will read and write to and then it gets deleted.

Any and all ideas and suggestions will be tested.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Build a representation of the folder's contents (using a DirectoryReader and CSS) and display that. Don't actually try to display the physical folder.

Answer 2

this sounds like FTP, and if it's on an intranet, why not create a share? much less work.
