I have made symlinks from /usr/local/www/data/<stuff> to within www in my home directory. Some of the files for the class web sites (handouts, syllabi) are just copies of things elsewhere in my home directory. I'd like to symlink from within www to these (and they have 644 permissions), but apparently the lack of world execute permissions on the directories is causing permission problems--and real links get out of sync when I update the files. I want to have things just automatically update. Is there a clean way to do this? thanks hawk -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.
