Thanks a lot for your response. I have changed the .htaccess part as `````````````` # .htaccess slows down apache; only use it when required # AllowOverride All #Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all ``````````````````` and now no problem with symlinks. Hope it does not effect .htaccess thanks > Cheers > > Tom > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
