specify path & file in allowed hosts

Is there any way to specify a full path filename inside the allowed host element of a receiver configuration?

The scenario is

Target Server A (OD receiver) is a shared application server hosting a number of separate applications for separate groups (apps 1, 2, 3).

OD Base Server B manages the deployment of files for app 1 only.

These apps share common directory location for configuration files (/etc)

Can we ensure that server B can only deploy /etc/app1.conf and nothing else.

I know this can all be managed in the OD profile which resides on the OD base, but this means server A is unable specify it's own security policies (at least to the file level).

I haven't actually tested this, but the manual seems to describe that the existing feature is for directories only (which is fine 99% of the time).

I don't think this will work. You might have to do something clever like have the specific sender deploy to a temporary directory, and then have an allowed DNR that runs to check whether this is an allowed file.
