Re: [users@httpd] Proper configuration of FollowSymLinks in 2.0.54

[Forrest Aldrich]

Okay here's what happened. My config: User www Group www ServerName forrie.com DocumentRoot /home/test Listen *:8091 <Directory /> Options All </Directory> ErrorLog        /var/log/httpd-error.log If I do a "ln -s /usr/local/shares/forrie/files ." into the above DocumentRoot, I get the proper symlink: files -> /usr/local/shares/forrie/files And I get this error: [Fri Sep 09 13:49:33 2005] [error] [client 192.168.1.99] Symbolic link not allowed: /hom e/test/files BUT... If I create a file "test2" in the ".." directory, containing "foo", then "ln -s /home/test2 ." which gives me: test2 -> /home/test2 I can get to it via the browser. Now I'm suspicious of a filesystem item with FreeBSD-6.0 -- the symblic link to "files" is on the second hard drive, whereas the first is on the same disk. Other than that possibility, I'm at a loss here. Thanks. _F Joshua Slive wrote: On 9/9/05, Joshua Slive <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: 4. ln -s test2/index.txt test/symlink.txt Oops. That's obviously not exactly what I did, since it creates a broken symlink. More like ln -s ../test2/index.txt test/symlink Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
