yup that would do it. you could also write a script that is fired off every minute via cron that would do a dir of 1 to the other, and any missing files you could do a ln -s of it, and vice versa for the other directory. or create 2 named pipes and write to them, and have a job read from each and do the ln -s from there too. it all depends on how you slice it and dice it. jerry On Saturday 13 October 2007 08:14, Michael Havens wrote: > Here is the situation: > > I have two 'documents' folders in my system.
