Download-scriptto DL files outside the public_html folder

[theSammy95@gmail.com]

I have a small Linux webserver, and want to find a (php) script
that lets my users download files located outside of the public_html
folder

Anyone that knows how or have a readymade solution?

How about something like this:
"http://server/download.php?di r=root&file=com mand.com"

Then use the PHP file system features from within
Download.php to send the file to the requester.
