Hi I am trying to set up an FreeBSD ftp. It's totally unsecure (read + write on incoming) as it's only going to be used on my LAN but I can't get all of it going: How do symbolic links work? I want to link the /cdrom directory to be shared via ftp is this possible? I did a ls -s and managed to link my / to the ftp directory something which I immediately tried to undo:( I did the following: cd /var/ftp rm -R / Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! It killed my root so at the moment my box is busy reinstalling!!!!!!!!! Anyone care to explain links to me, I tried the manual but it doesn't really say anything... Bye + Thanx Malan Joubert _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
