i really don't think I understand this 'simple' solution... :(

how can you configure directories on a server to be invisible to users..?

what I want is to prevent users from doing like cd /etc

only directories that should work would then be cd /home and all other
directories would give "access denied" or so. (or would be invisible as you
say, even nicer!)

But how to do this..?
