Close. It's called a symbolic link, or symlink. As long as you can do 'ls
-la /bin/bash' and see something like:

 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 676836 2006-09-19 18:24 /bin/bash

You should be good. Symlinks can link to symlinks can link to....

Nope. I believe that you copied the file down somehow and left the DOS
line termination (ctl-M) and that's what's messing it up. How did you copy
the files to your linux box?
