I want to have a shared directory in Pc to Pc application, but i am thinking
back to the problem that kazaa had when using the browser to type in a known
path such as C:\Program Files\etc

Has someone an example or knowledge of how to make sure when using ICS's
http component that only the assigned directory can be used for retrieving
data.
ie howto process every incoming request and if the request involves a path
outside the shared or allowed dir to scrap the request and return forbidden
etc.

thanks in advance
