Not list symbolic links - and others in mulituser
Hi,

thanks to GT and TheStone for the new fileman. A suggestion - now that the new fileman is so different from the old tool - woouldn't it make sense to make a separate Fileman 2 forum?

My question relates to one I had some time back for the beta of fileman 2 -

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/...orum.cgi?post=162052

As I now have the multiuser version installed I could want to do the same with that one and not list certain files. But I don't seem to find the same files... How would I proceed to have it not list files starting with . ?

Also - I have a couple of symbolic links on my web (eg the CGI-Bin) the. My idea with using symbolic links was to have those folders viewable through web, but not editable through FileMan for those users that can access the root of my web. Well... FileMan seems too smart for me and just lists those symbolic links/folders as normal folders and opens them smooth as.

I can see the practical use for this, but really would like FileMan not to see - and at least not be able to open Symbolic Links. Is that doable?

Also - Bae installed FileMan on our server in the very beginning of December. Were any major changes done to the code before release? Maybe a good idea to upgrade before I start hacking.
