--------------2EB074F12D0D2947259DE9B3 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I am trying to create a hard link to a directory which contains commonly needed files ( bin & lib ) for FTP to work. The goal is to have only one place on the hard drive to get the files from, both reducing disk space (hosting many domains) and allowing easy update of those files if newer ones come out. When I issue the link command I get an error, I have copied the exact syntax and resulting error below. I am trying to link /home/base/bin in each of many domains. Have tried it as : /home/abc.com/ ln -d /home/base/bin /home/abc.com /home/abc.com/ ln -F /home/base/bin /home/abc.com ln: cannot create hard link `/home/abc.com/bin' to `/home/base/bin': Operation not permitted I am logged in as root... Thanks ! ___________________________________________________________ Jack Sasportas Innovative Internet Solutions Phone 305.665.2500 Fax 305.665.2551 www.innovativeinternet.com www.web56.net --------------2EB074F12D0D2947259DE9B3 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> I am trying to create a hard link to a directory which contains commonly needed
