sshfs exposes user remote folder mount to other users #37

@GoogleCodeExporter

Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install win-sshfs
2. mount a remote folder, note the remote folder's local name
3. login as another user (e.g. via rdp)
4. look for the remote folder

What is the expected output?

-> I expect that no other user will be able to see the folder I have mounted.

What do you see instead?

-> any user can walk the remote folder tree using windows explorer. This kinda 
defeats the purpose of ssh, e.g. on a machine that can host multiple 
simultaneous user sessions.

What version of the product are you using?

win-sshfs: 0.0.1.5
Client OS: win7 pro sp-whatever (current)
Server OS: Fedora 14
Ssh server: openssh-server-5.5p1





Please provide any additional information below.

Every combination of two simultaneous users I tried exposed the 1st user's 
remote folder to the 2nd user.

For example, if I run sshfs.exe as Admin from an rdp session (which works), a 
user account can walk the remote folder.
