You need to use the web server's Realm security to protect non-WebDNA files. You could theoretically keep the web server and WebDNA users database in sync; how to do this is dependent on your web server (and, as such, kind of off topic here ;~). Another idea would be to use the web-delivery feature of WebCatalog to produce secure downloads of non-WebDNA files. It would probably be a pain to set up unless you were doing this a lot.
