Could you be more specific about which program failed? The GNU fileutils is a large collection of programs. Without some information about which program failed it will be impossible to determine a cause. > The failure was in java security. If the problem was in Java then you have reported the problem to the wrong folks. No Java here. Try to determine which Java you are using and submit a report to that package's maintainer. > Problem is, this issue does not exist in Solaris or Tru64.

I think perhaps you are not having trouble with 'ln'. The 'ln' command makes links on the filesystem. How other programs use those links is unrelated. Good luck!
