ks in /var to the new
ones. Careful of your naming so you don't get confused on a
sleepy morning.I tend to name the new alternates something
like var.log and var.mail, etc which helps keep them straight
in my mind.

I have this application that only works with local filedirectories.
Is it possible to make a symbolic link to a URL (internet location with
the files I want to display/open) so that I can fake location as being
local?

You need a Options FollowSymLinks.
But, I strongly advise you against allowing symlinks in user
directories. It's just a security breach.

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to know which folders are pointing to each other in a cycle
manner by doing a find or some other command? I have a backup utility (in
windows thru samba) which seems to backup redundant files, probably due to
some symbolic links pointing to each other in cycle. Maybe a

Hello,
why is, regardless of freebsd version in /usr/local/share/nls/C the
following symbolic link to itself
C -> C
, why not .keep_me or something?

deletion it reappears mysteriously.

Hi, I would like to create a symbolic link to my /var/logs/.
Is there a right way to do. I was just going to use the symbolic link
command but I've never done this before. I want my users to be able to
download there stats whenever they like.
If anyone has a better solution I would like to

open when you mv them.
