Hmmm. Still not 100% clear on exactly what you want to
accomplish, but it sounds like a simple shell or Perl
script setup as a cron may do the trick. In Perl,
maybe something like:

my $count=`ls | wc -l`; # this captures the amount of
lines in your posting directory.

Then setup an if statement:

if ($count >= $some_number){
         system("ln -s blah blah")
         }

Chances are good that I've missed your objective, but
maybe this will help in some way. Have you looked at
the Net::FTP module? Very nice. It can also do SSH. By
the way, this list rocks. Whoever came up with the
idea deserves applause.
