Locked folder?

[Henrymou]

Hi, I am using a Mac OS X
with Tiger.

I would like to create a "locked folder"
A folder not open-able even by the admin unless he/she inserts a password specific to that folder. Does anyone know how to do this?
It would be great if you could help. I have some basic Unix skills so I might be able to utilize some source code.

Thanks
-Henry

Henrymou, check it out;

quote from the link above

Disk Utility -> New Blank Image -> Set size generously, Encryption to AES-128 and Format to sparse disk image (that way the image will only take up the space of whatever you put into it). Choose a safe password and verify it but remember to uncheck the Remember password (add to Keychain) check box (this also applies the first time you open it).
