Hi, anyone know if there's a flashfxp setting to lock directory access on the remote server?

E.g. Sometimes i have more than one version of a site on a domain, in different directories, like this:
/public_html/version1/
/public_html/version2/

What i'd like to be able to do is set up a site connection to version2 that doesn't allow me to navigate back up to public_html, just so i don't accidentally starting writing files to version1 when i'm only working on version2.

I know it's possible to do this somehow in apache settings, but wondered if flashfxp has the ability:confused:

apache is a web server, it has nothing to do with ftp...

you want to modify your account and set its home root to version2 dir.
alternatively you can remove read permission from version1 dir so you won't be able to go into it.
