[users@httpd] Symbolic link
Hi all, I upgrade a few items on a regular basis, like phpMyadmin and horde/imp.
I would like to un-tar the directory in my root directory and change simply
change a symbolic link so I don't have to change the config file each time. I
just tried it and got an error. Logs say this ....
Symbolic link not allowed: /www/ ...........
My server is my home box running Linux Slackware 9.0.0, Apache/2.0.50
OpenSSL/0.9.7d PHP/4.3.7
Is there a configure option (either in the config file or in compile-time
options) that will allow me to do this?
Tim

Oh crap!!! Thanks! I had the SymLinksIfOwnerMatch entered, and I didn't chown
the directory. Silly rabbit, Trix is for kids :)
