How do you create a symlink in the command console
Question :: How do you create a symlink in the command console?
Command :
ln -s
If the desired link filename is the same as the destination's filename, and the current working directory is the desired location for the link, then you only need:
ln -s
If you are trying to create a link to a directory?
I've got a directory called /usr/local/test/installed. In this dir there is the sub-dir "spf-2.3.4"
I want to create a link in "/usr/local/test/installed" called "spf" to "spf-2.3.4."
cd /usr/local/test/installed
ln -s spf-2.3.4 spf
The syntax is the same whether the link is to a file or a directory.
