[COMP] Re: *nix syntax

yes www is a subdirectory

I have /etc/skel/www/cgi-bin

so it's /home/user/www/cgi-bin

The Alabanza servers have something confusing like this:

/home/user/domain-www/cgi-bin

When you ftped in you saw:
www
username-www
username-secure
username-mail
username-logs

Not sure why there were 2 www directories

One thing I did like about an Alabanza server was that when 
you ftped in to your account they had a /mail directory

My current server setup has mail in /var

what would I have to do in /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf to make a 
symlink to the /var/mail directory so a users mail directory 
would show up when they ftped into their account?

Am I correct in thinking that a link or symlink would 
accomplish this?

thanks
David
