Default Re: Snapserver 4400 OS Upgrade and Config Overwriting question

Hidding root is pretty if you start off right. All you need to do to restrict this is to creat a directory called ftp on the the root (with restricted access) and put all users file in there. And make them (sub folders) the mounting point. Do not use the ftp as a mounting point, if you do you bypass the restricted access because the user has access to a root directory. I use the security guide to do this, for it can step you through all the steps, so it works the first time. As long as a users share is not on the root he can not see any root directories or files. Any user with root access can see files & folders, and allowed to snoop around. Restricting users to mount to a sub folder takes care of this. And yes the Guardian has a feature to hide all contents except the file path you provide to them. Which is a pretty neat feature for providing single file access.
