Security

If your talking about very very very fast file transfer then here is the destiny.

Why xsend module is made for?

xsend is a simple module to help you to speed up your private file transfers. Normally Drupal private file transfer is quite troublesome and not secure if the files folder is located at public_html. This module will also help protect your files from unauthorized access.

Why you need this?

• If you're still using Drupal public file transfer you're not secure at all. Every one can get your files.
• If you're using Drupal private file transfer, you're secure. But file transfer to the client is very slow.
• Fast secure file transfer can only be achieved from the xsend.

How to migrate to xsend?

• If you're using a standard Drupal installation then follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.
• If you're currently using private file transfer correctly, then you can still use this INSTALL guide, but make sure keep empty, the path to Drupal installation directory settings.

At first sight, you may think it's just another fork of already available module on drupal.org like taxonomy_access or tac_lite. First one is a taxonomy control access based on roles, second one is a taxonomy control access based on users. But both of those modules miss the - according to me essential - inheritance notion :
if you have access to one term, you don't automatically have access to the children nodes. My module does take care about inheritance and this way permit a powerfull user access control.
