Hi there,

What is the best way to limit what a user can see in the system?  If
there are directories I don't want some users to have access to what
is the best way to restrict that?  For example, if a user has a home
directory and is also part of a group administering a web site, all
that is really needed is access to the home directory and the web
folder.  But because he needs access to the web folder I can't just
chroot him in his home folder.  I thought about making his home folder
the web folder but there may be more web admins later.  Is there a way
to be selective, I guess, in what is accessible and what is not?

Thanks for your help!!

Ash
