i'm a little lost about what you wasnt to do myself but lndir might help (comes with x.org, i think!). creates directory structure like some specified directory and creates symlinks in them to all the files. sharad birmiwal On 5/14/06, Sameer N Ingole [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Tanveer Singh wrote: the file part is a little tougher because now have to work with ln.

Exactly what ?I need! Since the original database is all accessible on the same server(its a NFS dir), each user can probably use it to create symlinks ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
