I am new to webmastering. I have installed a membership script (adtracker) under public_html/adtrackerpro/ Is it right there? But is it safe? Can all people now see all files or download maybe? A problem is that the signup for the membership is public, so when someone knows the url he can just signup. How can I make it so that only selected people can signup? In the intallation help it says that one should load up all files to the server root, but I don't wanted it in the root. I will have an other page in the root, not the ad tracker.
The visitors can browse the pages, not download the script... You can add password protection, etc. if you wanna keep the directory private.
