Is it possible to set folder by user?

Hi,

Would it be possible to set the folder(s) a user can see and access based on user? I would like it to work kind of like FTP where each user has his/her "root" folder so that user A cannot see or access User B's files/folders.

Can I do this with CKFinder? If so, is it a simple configuration parameter or is it somewhat complicated? I'd love to see some code samples that show how this is accomplished.

Thanks

Re: Is it possible to set folder by user?

To load folders based on users u can achive by using session in config.ascx, something like this
if (Session["ShowImageFolders"] != null)
{
BaseUrl = service.GetDirectoryPath(@"\CatalogImages\");
StoreClass store = new StoreClass();
if (store != null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(store.Name))
{
BaseUrl = BaseUrl + store.Name + @"\StoreImages" ;
}
}
else
{
BaseUrl = service.GetDirectoryPath(@"\Catalog\MasterPages\");
StoreClass store = new StoreClass();
if (store != null && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(store.SelectedTheme))
{
BaseUrl = BaseUrl + store.SelectedTheme + @"\";
}
}

to give access specific on role u need to do the same
if (Session["ShowImageFolders"] != null)
{
acl.FolderView = true;
acl.FolderCreate = true;
acl.FolderRename = true;
acl.FolderDelete = true;

acl.FileView = true;
acl.FileUpload = true;
acl.FileRename = true;
acl.FileDelete = true;
}
else
{
acl.FolderView = true;
acl.FolderCreate = false;
acl.FolderRename = false;
acl.FolderDelete = false;

acl.FileView = true;
acl.FileUpload = false;
acl.FileRename = false;
acl.FileDelete = false;
}
