I am running 4.02.  How do I prevent non-logged in users and registered users without the appropriate roles from downloading any file on my site with just an URL?

Thanks, Mike

You need to set the permissions on the module when you install it.

Which module are you using?

you will need a 3rd party module such as free DnnPortal-Download from www.dnnportal.de, that uses a specific download page for delivering the file.

I did set the permissions in each module for the specific roles that are allowed to have access.  The problem is once the URL of the file is obtained, that can be given to anyone and anyone can just paste the url into the browser and they will have access to the file.  They will not be asked to login.

The modules I have tried so far are links, text/html, and several third party modules.
