Sym Link problem
Hi,
I am using Mac X 10.5. It's supporting BSD. I am getting strange problem.
• Launch the terminal.
• Create a directory. Use cd <directory>
• Now create another directory test with command “mkdir test”.
• Create a soft link with command “ln -s text.txt test”
• Go to the test directory “cd test”.
• Run the command ls -la. Output would be as
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 8 Sep 24 12:59 text.txt -> text.txt
Here, a file is pointing it self.
Anybody know, why it's happening.
