Before you start

Could you explain briefly how would you create in Drupal a private area that is accessible only to a certain class of users. What existing modules would you use?

I already have my server configured and running other software, primarily Trac and SVN through webdav. Users are authenticated against an htpasswd file. I'm considering installing Drupal - is it possible to authenticate Drupal users via the htpasswd file, instead of using accounts stored in the database? This would enable a single sign on for all apps. If this is possible can I also add/remove users from the htpasswd file using Drupal?

Thanks

Hi everybody,

I need to create an web application where press releases are being published and I would like to use Drupal for this.

I created a simple database scheme to visualize my needs, if you could please take a look at it:

The system needs the following features:
- articles being published with simple formatting options (sure, no problem, fckeditor is running)
- file attachments need to be done (no problem neither)
now the more complicated stuff:
- an arbitrary amount of images needs to be published with each press release
-- each image exists in 2 versions: one high resolution CMYK-JPG and one low resolution RGB-JPG
-- CMYK and RGB Image need to share the same meta data and tags
-- it would be great to read exif and iptc data directly out of the image files (optional)
-- it would be great to automatically create the lowres rgb images from the highres cmyk images and store them on the file system (optional)
-- access to high-res cmyk images MUST be limited to specific user roles, low-res rgb images are shown to the public (as the rest of the press release is)

- textual information, attachments and an gallery overview of the images need to be shown on one page (should be possible with views?)

Dear,

i m really intrested in internet surfing, now a days after browsing many sites i found that concept of RSS Feed is very popular. But even after doing so many studies in different sites i m not able to understand the concept completely. i think this is because i m not much educated about programming. so kindly help me understanding this concept and use of rss feed.

thnx in advance.
