Not sure he's referring to that nation-x.

Jayx - a lot of CMS systems do this by default [CARMA, etc]

If not, it wouldn't be hard at all to setup a wrapper to make it happen.

IE, if you were linking normally to:

/images/Set50/image1.jpg

You could easily set it up to do:
a]

/images.php?path=Set50/image1.jpg
Inside that image.php, log $_REQUEST['path'] and $_SERVER['PHP_USER_AUTH']

Or do similar, but with http rewrites.

NOTE: If you don't understand the security implications of the above arrangement, don't implement it yourself

But with that said, you could do what you want in about.. 3 lines of code
