I have this directory
drwxrwxr-x 6 awdfiles pasgroup 4096 Jan 31 17:20 awdfiles
Which I want to access via another FTP connection. The user is part of the pasgroup
I traverse to the root html directory of my desired user and create the symlink
$ cd rayhawkpas/dev
$ ln -s ../../awdfiles awdfiles
lrwxrwxrwx 1 rayhawkpas rayhawkpas 14 Feb 6 13:06 awdfiles -> ../../awdfiles
However, when I try to download the directory in dreamweaver it looks like this
It seems to not recognize that it's a directory.
I tried symlinking to a specific file to make sure my permissions were right
ln -s ../../awdfiles/themes/1/includes/header.php test.php
This worked fine. It showed up in dreamweaver and I was able to download and upload the file.
