Did some research, it appears that there is no s milar flag to /root for
iexplore.exe, and the /root command is what I need, as it will let me
direct someone to a particular folder but not go higher then that level,
only down.

We do it this way......We publish C:\WINNT\CTX_explorer.exe /n, /e,
H:\My Documents
 
Where ctx_explorer is a copy of explorer.exe
 
Do a search on MS website for explorer.exe switches.
 
(PS Citrix recommend you use iexpore.exe and there is an articale
somewhere about this)

        I'd like to have some way to publish explorer, internet
explorer, or some other app so that you are restricted as to where you
browse.  In particular, a users re-directed my docs folder and downward
into their folder.

        Example:  your can access r:\users\jdoe\my documents and any
folder beneath my documents, but they cannot go up a level beyond my
documents. 


        I haven't been able to come up with much  yet.  I believe
someone on the list said they were working on a way to do something
similar.  Has anyone seen this done, or have a good suggestion as to
how to do it?
