HIYA

the directory I gave u was just an example here comes the real
directory structure:

/home/abysswor/public_html/
  |
  |__/abysswo1/public_html/awu/abysswor

OK - the folder /abysswo1/public_html/awu/ is symlinked to /home/abysswor/
and if I view the properties of /abysswo1/public_html/awu/abysswor my ftp-program
shows me the following:

File Filoder (-> /home/abysswor)

But if I try to delete the awu folder i'll get allway a 'dir not empty' message.

Now again: How can u delete this(the awu) dir???

Best Regards
And A Big THX For Ur Help
