-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 What I'm trying to do is a fairly sensible symlink on my server - my main photos section lives at http://www.easyweb.co.uk/pics/ but knowing some people, I'll get attempts to get to it at http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photo/ and http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photos/ (and having Dan Quayle as a mate (jk) also http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photoes/ ) So I did the sensible thing and set up a couple of symlinks: bash$ ln -s pics photos bash$ ln -s pics photoes which gives me (extract): lrwxrwxrwx 1 web3060 3060 4 Oct 5 16:40 photo -> pics lrwxrwxrwx 1 web3060 3060 4 Oct 5 16:41 photoes -> pics lrwxrwxrwx 1 web3060 3060 4 Oct 5 16:41 photos -> pics drwxr-xr-x 10 web3060 3060 1024 Oct 3 22:04 pics Smurfy, eh? Those Unix classes last year pay off. cd photo (etc) gives me exactly what I'd expect - it takes me into a dir with all the same content as /pics/. So why the hell when I try to access http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photo/ or http://www.easyweb.co.uk/photo/index.html (etc) do I get 403 errors?
