Sometimes a broken link isn't a "broken link". If the link points to a file in a directory to where you don't have access. An example of this would be /etc/named.conf in a chroot environment. As a normal user you'd go to /etc and see named.conf flashing....but it really isn't broken. -- A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools. -- Douglas Adams in "Mostly Harmless -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
