I'm running ipython notebook server on the cloud and i want to expose this as a service so that users can play around with the notebook, i noticed that using notebook i can access the filesystem and inspect files on the filesystem, i want to limit this access.I want only special folders to be accessible from ipython notebook.

Once you've entered your specific folder with Windows Explorer, you can simply press ALT + D, type in cmd and press Enter. You can then type jupyter notebook to launch Jupyter Notebook within that specific folder.
You can set access control for Jupyter notebooks at the account level and at the object level. This feature is available in the latest version of Jupyter Notebooks. If you are not using the latest version of Jupyter notebooks, you can enable this feature from the Control Panel >> Account Features page.
You can launch your iPython notebook in the folder that you want the server to have access to, and the user won't be able to go to the parent directory, but you should realize that when the user launches a kernel, they will be able to chdir to any folder in the file system.
So if you want to limit access to users of the iPython notebook, you should use unix file permissions to jail the user to their starting folder.
The way I would do this is to:
ipython user that doesn't belong to any existing user groupscloud for instance)ipython in the cloud folder
