Cannot link to a file on another device
Hello,
I'm trying to move a file using ftp command
rename filename /new/filesystem/filename
but I'm getting the error Cannot link to a file on another device. When it says 'device' what exactly does that mean? Physical or logical? Is there anyway to display and find a suitable drive.
Thanks
ps. The reason I'm using ftp is that's the only id (apart from root which I haven't got) that can move the file. None of my unix I.D's have permission..
