hello all..

basically, what i am trying to do is the following:

I have various clients logging into my portal, i would like to give them access to only their docments based on their role. what i have done is create a folder in the root call My Documents and given all clients access to that folder, then, I create a folder below that and give only that particular client access to their folder, I put all docs for them in "their" folder. It seems to work ok, so when they log in and click the "my documents" page with the documents module installed, it only shows them their own documents. i have other pages for example "my reports" with the same principle and its seems to be working ok.

the problem comes in with uploading docs, reports.. etc. i have a role called uploaders and i have assigned users to that role, the uploaders role has edit permission to the modules and write to folder permissions to all the "clients" folders. The can upload without a problem, but when they view for example "my documents" it displays everything from all clients even files in the my reports folder, i assume it is because they have rights to everything. it is very confusing,.

is there a better way of doing what i am trying to do?

thanks in advance..
