- Does it support symbolic links? My problem is that I can't have
- symbolic links off my anonymous ftp directories. The directories
- can be made, and will show up when logging into the directory from
- from the shell, or valid login's using ftp, but don't show up when
- logging in via anonymous ftp.
-
- Try it -- anonymous ftp gator.use.com -- you can't get to any files -- since
- they are all mounted via the nfs automounter using symbolic links
- on another machine. Yet, if you use another login/password
- to ftp into gator.use.com, the files appear.
