First of all, no. You are completely wrong :) I am not a criminal and I
am not trying to violate or bend any rules, nor hack nor crack nor do
any evil (TM).

If you will agree to rephrase your question in more positive
and non-accusing language, I may be willing to agree :)
I *am* allowed to create symlinks, and view outside of my chroot, it is
just very inconvenient to have to write and upload a script when you
want to do something like
ls ..
in a dir that you cannot see from ftp
Below is my botch that I forgot to include last time.
