Gave it a shot, however, I still get a message that the link is a directory. It is not allowing me to "unlink" the symlink. Any other suggestions? I can try to wean them on to another ftp client, see how receptive they are...wondering why windows can't see symlinks.. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin D. Kinsey, DaleCo, S.P.

Basically, I have a user who cannot see the symlink I've set up for them...not sure why. >Thx > >SR > Seems strange. Do they have permissions on the linked dir? Perhaps they are using a Microsoft brower-based FTP. It doesn't seem to "see" symlinks. Can you wean them to a real client? Kevin Kinsey
