I want to make a website, which only allows authentic users to download files from the browser. And any one else cannot download the file.
I have uplaoded the files with 000 access, which will restrict the users, but how to give permissions only to authentic users.?
Can anyone help me with it?

You don't need to give a link to physical folder of a file. You may emulate it with such code(example of png):
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream; ");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="name.png"');
readfile($fileaddress);
