Ive been looking at some areas and cant find any information on this.  I am
wondering if there is any way to mount a partition -- in my case, a MSDOS
partition.  I'd like to only mount one specific directory, lets say, /archive.
I don't want other files to be public as I do have some information on my
MSDOS partition that I dont want my other users to snoop into -- but I wish
to make some useful utilities in /archive on my dos partition available.  Is
there any way I can do this?

If I cant mount only a specific directory, then are there any way I can "block"
out access to specific directories?  I will probably be making this drive read
only and am wondering if there are any solutions or approaches to this problem.

Many thanks!

Jon
