Hi: Can someone tell me how long a symbolic link lasts? Do these need to be maintained in any way? Are there any 'gotchas' in using them? I just did a symbolic link to place /var under /usr (as described in the book: The Complete FreeBSD. Now I get the entry var@ when I enter the command ls -F. I guess var@ tells me that there is symbolic link. Thanks, John ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
