The chroot system call will prevent any access from outside the root, so it's impossible to access /a/b/c/e from inside the chroot area if you use a symlink. If you can setup a "bind" mount in your /etc/fstab file, you can use that instead (this is supported by modern GNU tools): /a/b/c/e /a/b/c/d/e none bind Since the content is now mounted in two places, the path restriction of /a/b/c/d will now allow you to access the content in "e". The only other alternative I can think of is to switch which spot is the real directory and which spot is the symlink: rm /a/b/c/d/e mv /a/b/c/e /a/b/c/d/e ln -s ../d/e /a/b/c/e ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
