because /usr/portage/distfiles IS the real location, and /home/ftp/pub/gentoo/distfiles is the ftp shared location. vsftpd doesn't handle symlinks, so I have to bind it. Now that you mention it though, I could move it for real into /home/ftp/pub/gentoo/distfiles and change DISTDIR... hm. -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> Real programmers don't bring brown-bag lunches.
