[QUOTE="anynamewilldo, post: 1428242, member: 263577"] In this example, I will create a link from a user's folder to some other location. I like to put Pictures and Music in a common location, rather than having them in different user directories. Note that all directories I create are readable and writable by all users on the system 1). Bring up the terminal 2). cd /Users/Shared 3). cp -r /Users/Shared/<Username>/Music . 4). chmod -r 777 Music 5). cd /Users/Shared/<Username> 6). rm -rf Music 7). ln -s /Users/Shared/Music That should work. Username should now have a Music directory that is in the /Users/Shared directory. [/QUOTE]
