In their $HOME directory, I have a symbolic links to another part of the partition (not in /home). Now, when I try to use an FTP client to change direcotries to that symbolic link I get: "Too many levels of symbolic links." I am guessing this is related to that INTERNAL_LS feature. Is it possible to have ftp clients work for symbolic links and also follow the INTERNAL_LS feature at the same time? I really wouldnt want to take out that feature, but at the same time I do want FTP clinets to work. Is it all or nothing situation? ;-) Thanks.
