Can Apache be configured to force a document 'Open' on browser?
We are giving users the ability to open protected Adobe Acrobat files. This requires that they OPEN a security stub file. Problem is, the browser (testing with Firefox) gives them the option whether to Open or Save. If they save, it botches things up.
How can we tell the browser to always Open the file and not give the ability to Save?

You could have the stub file be executible (i.e. a PHP file) and have that process execute the required permissions activity.
If authentication fails, set the content-type with a header and pass through the PDF; if authentication fails, simply present an HTML error.
