I know how to create a symlink but I am getting an error message that the file already exists. Also, my symlink doesn't point from target directory to the path correctly,
Here is an example of the path to my folder structure
path: cd /wkspce/wff/DEV/jobs/DEL
the folder structure is:
DEL (TOP directory)
|
archive (subdirectory directory)
|
DEL (subdirectory under archive)
The symlink target directory is the archive directory and path /wkspc/wff/Dev/data/ess/archive/DEL
My symlink needs to point from the archive directory to /wkspc/wff/Dev/data/ess/archive/DEL
DEL (DEL is the TOP directory and archive is a subdirectory and DEL is another subdirectory under archive.
The symlink results need to look like the following:

Hello. I am working on creating a script to recursively run on my media collection. The goal is to recreate the folder structure, but with slight changes in the folder names based on my rules. The folders will also include the .jpg & .mkv files, renamed according to a similar set of rules.

Hi All,
Is there any way to create a symlink that will point to last 1000 line of a log file. My symlink will always point to "tail -1000 logfile".
This can be achieved by writing a script and scheduling with high frequency, but I am looking for some other alternatives.
Please let me know... (8 Replies)
i would like to remove a directory and also symlink target inside.
my_directory

rm -rf my_directory will not remove symlink target.
rm -rf "`readlink -f file1`" will only remove target if specifying the symlink is specified

elf_rand
ELF_RAND(3) BSD Library Functions Manual ELF_RAND(3)NAME
elf_rand -- provide sequential access to the next archive member
LIBRARY
ELF Access Library (libelf, -lelf)
SYNOPSIS
#include <libelf.h>
off_t
elf_rand(Elf *archive, off_t offset);
DESCRIPTION
The elf_rand() function causes the ELF descriptor archive to be adjusted so that the next call to elf_begin(3) will provide access to the ar-
chive member at byte offset offset in the archive. Argument offset is the byte offset from the start of the archive to the beginning of the
archive header for the desired member.
Archive member offsets may be retrieved using the elf_getarsym(3) function.
RETURN VALUES
Function elf_rand() returns offset if successful or zero in case of an error.
EXAMPLES
To process all the members of an archive use:
off_t off;
Elf *archive, *e;
...
cmd = ELF_C_READ;
archive = elf_begin(fd, cmd, NULL);
while ((e = elf_begin(fd, cmd, archive)) != (Elf *) 0)
{
... process `e' here ...
elf_end(e);
off = ...new value...;
if (elf_rand(archive, off) != off) {
... process error ...
}
}
elf_end(archive);
To rewind an archive, use:
Elf *archive;
...
if (elf_rand(archive, SARMAG) != SARMAG) {
... error ...
}
ERRORS
Function elf_rand() may fail with the following errors:
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument archive was null.
[ELF_E_ARGUMENT] Argument archive was not a descriptor for an ar(1) archive.
[ELF_E_ARCHIVE] Argument offset did not correspond to the start of an archive member header.
