I noticed that the FTP server on www5 is showing symbolic links as directories. I had a problem when I deleted a symbolic link; the source directory was deleted as well (I had a backup). I went through the detailed logs in my FTP client and found the directory named "2007" as a "dir", but it's actually a symbolic link. Here's what it showed:
Listing: type=dir;sizd=4096;modify=20090528014315;UNIX.mode=0755;UNIX.uid=32308;UNIX.gid=32312;unique=802g3010068; 2007
It should be showing the type as something similar to this: type=OS.unix=slink:/archives/2007
Could this be fixed?
Thanks.
