Hi Rob,
You would give them "read only" access to the "fromus" directory (via
the object-level permissions). This would prevent them from using it
for uploads.
I guess you could disable read access to the "tous" directory if you
don't want them to be able to download the files they just uploaded,
too... not sure if I've tried that.
If you use digital keys (instead of userid/password) you shouldn't have
trouble with nefarious people being able to use your site as a
store-and-forward. If your goal is to make the site secure, I'd say
passwords are the first thing to eliminate!

use of 'chroot jail' allow me to limit them to downloading only from
fromus and uploading only to tous?
