Further to this.. I believe I need to add a 'Script' directive.. e.g. Script PUT cgi-bin/put.pl where put.pl creates the file required. However, adding the Script directive to a .htaccess file within the subdomain's folder causes internal server errors with an error message "...../.htaccess: Script not allowed here" Anyone know how I can get around this ? I am going to try add a script handler based on mime type (and create a mime type for my logged files). Mike

I am looking into developing a GPRS logger which requires to upload files to a server. As I don't have the code space or time to develop a simple FTP client, I am looking into using the HTTP PUT method. What would I need to do to create a folder (or a subdomain) which was password protected, using only basic authentication. Searching around, there seems to be a bit of a discussion about security issues and the PUT method. Other than using basic authentication, what other security issues would there be ? Regards Mike
